Abstract

Advanced Level examination is the most critical examination that determines the future of the students in Sri Lanka as it is the path for the higher education. In Sri Lanka students are sitting for Advanced Level examination in Art Commerce Bio or Maths streams. The objective of this study was to develop a framework with Augmented Reality applications to be used in Advanced Level Bio science subject as a supportive learning technique evaluating the performances of the students with developed Augmented Reality AR applications running on the computer. The study was carried out using the Advanced Level students in Gampaha educational region. AR application was developed using Java language and with available supportive tools. As this application was based on markers another tool was used to create markers. An open ended questionnaire was provided to the selected students to identify the feasibility and students perception on the developed AR application for the students. A question paper was designed based on the subject area of the developed AR application to evaluate the student performances. After developing the AR application it was provided to the half of the selected student sampleone class and the other half of the students another class was exposed to normal existing learning procedure. Thereafter both student samples were exposed to the common examination to assess the performances. AR application helped to enhance the students performances by increasing the student interest better understanding memorizing ability and increasing the pass rate of the students.
