Reality matters? exploring a tangible user interface for augmented-reality-based fire education

摘要: When fire disasters are imminent, disaster prevention measures and relief plans critical. However, “fire education” to equip civilians with the know-how cope various emergencies protect themselves is perhaps more important. To provide learning materials which interesting, appealing, flexible, safe, efficient for education, this study adopts an augmented reality (AR) technique create interactive education environment. This constructs environment examines effectiveness between AR card tangible-user-interface-based (TUI) in motivation, attitude, cognitive outcome. In proposed environment, Kolb’s experiential cycle used guide students’ process. There were 170 experimental participants study; 86 assigned group using TUI, 84 control cards. The system integrated could improve attitudes outcomes both groups. Moreover, performed better outcome had lower mental loads than group. no difference attitude two groups was found. other words, “object-linked” characteristics provided by TUI-AR benefits performance rather attitude. conclude, research presents important perspective on introduction of technology into that contributes broader body teaching school education.
