Abstract :
Augmented Reality (AR) as a vastly growing technology in the mobile computing domain is becoming mature enough to engender a variety of applications for the end user, especially in the educational domain. In this paper, we explore the possibility of developing interactive quizzes mediated by Layar™ AR technology. These quizzes are created with no advanced programming skills. Evaluating the usage of the created quizzes showed that they were useful, fun and represented a low cost solution for introducing AR in the classroom.
