Abstract

Technological advances are increasingly present in various social spaces, including the school. In this work, we discuss the potential of technological resources in the teaching and learning process and, more specifically, we carry out a literature review in order to identify how learning situations involving augmented reality in Basic Education have been addressed in scientific productions in the last ten years. The results point to a series of possibilities involving the use of technologies such as smartphones, tablets and specific applications, especially in the development of location-based games and inquiry-based learning.

Keywords: Augmented reality, Learning situations, K-12 education
