Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of augmented reality-based education on students' mathematical anxiety and academic achievement. The research method is quasi-experimental with two groups of control and experiment with pre-test and post-test design. The statistical population of the study consisted of 12 th grade students in Mashhad city of Aq Qala. The sampling method was clustered. In this study, 40 students were selected from the second grade students of Aq Qala city as research sample. They were divided into two groups: control and experimental. Research tools included the revised 2D Bai Mathematical Anxiety Questionnaires (2011) and the Shafli et al. (2002) Academic Attitude Questionnaire and the Yellow Book Book and App. The reliability of the questionnaires was calculated as 0.75 and 0.77 using Cronbach's alpha. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were evaluated by experts in the field of education and psychologists in the field of education. And after minor reforms, it was finally approved. The findings showed That Augmented Reality Education has a significant effect on students' math anxiety and academic achievement(P <0.01). The results showed Augmented reality-based education reduces math anxiety and increases students' academic excitement.
