Abstract

This work describes 21 experiences derived from the ACRA Innovation Project (2016-17) (Spanish acronym for Learning Sciences with Augmented Reality) promoted by the Asturian Department of Education, implemented at pre-university levels (kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school) in 9 formal educational institutions. The project looked for the integration of Augmented Reality (RA) in the teaching-learning processes of natural sciences. Experiences analyzed revealed that their objectives were oriented to facilitate the understanding of scientific concepts or processes and to explain facts and natural phenomena, adopting active methodologies such as project work. In conclusion, ACRA project has contributed to spread didactically the use of RA, selecting a sample of good practices to better understand its potential for improving learning of scientific concepts.
