A meta-synthesis of studies on the use of augmented reality in mathematics education

Augmented reality (AR) helps three dimensional, virtual objects to be viewed, interactively, in a real-world setting. AR technology is used many fields such as medicine, advertisement, military, industry, and increasingly education. has an important role concretizing educational platforms achieving permanent learning. This study aims evaluate studies on the use of mathematics education through meta-synthesis. 20 research articles, two master’s theses, PhD published between 2010 2021, centered technology, utilizing either qualitative or mixed methodology were analyzed this study. The databases for selecting texts including Google Scholar, EBSCO, Education Resources Information Center, Elsevier Scopus, ProQuest Dissertations Theses Full Text, Springer Link, Taylor & Francis Online, TUBITAK ULAKBIM Dergipark, YOK Thesis Centre. included meta-synthesis have been grouped according their descriptive properties, methods, data gathering tools, analysis, subjects they focus on, validity reliability, conclusions suggestions present. similarities differences these compared, accordance with nature categorized into themes synthesis. Parallel technological progress, it was observed that tended increase over years. In conclusion, most increasing spatial ability. It seen visualization concretization aspects often used. offers future researchers who are interested
