Abstract

Virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have emerged from the
framework of academic and industrial laboratories and have
acquired global attention. Currently, the focus shifted from the
technologies themselves to finding adequate teaching and
learning applications. In this paper, the students' attitudes toward
the application of mobile AR (MAR) in higher education (HE)
were researched (with a focus on augmented textbooks). The
results showed that the students have a mostly positive attitude,
and it is concluded that there was no statistically significant
difference between the STEM (science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics) and non-STEM students' opinions regarding
this topic. Based on the results, the further research and
integration of this technology into HE settings can be suggested.
