This project explores the use of augmented reality (AR) as a pedagogical strategy to improve the understanding of cellular concepts in tenth grade students of the official educational institution Ciudadela Educativa del Magdalena Medio, in the municipality of Barrancabermeja, Santander – Colombia. This project was born from the need to strengthen learning in cell biology topics, a fundamental area in the Natural Sciences component of the ICFES Saber 11 tests of the state in Colombia, where the institution has shown limited results in recent years.
The project used a random experiment group of the tenth grade, in which a pre-test was applied on specific concepts of biology, especially the cell as the protagonist of all living beings, with which it was hoped to improve the results in terms of the average evaluated by components, taking into account that in 2016 was the year in which a score above the average was obtained 52.24 and in the following years this score decreased significantly, so in 2023 the score was below the average of 45, this encouraged the development of the project.
Augmented reality educational content was developed that, through diagnostic tests and post-intervention evaluations, allowed improvements in learning to be observed.
The results obtained suggest that augmented reality is an effective tool to strengthen competencies in natural sciences in preparation for the ICFES Saber 11 tests, obtaining a score of 47 points in 2024, which indicates that it increased by two points compared to the previous year, which shows that the strategy turns out to be positive for the objective of the project.
