Abstract

The Augmented Reality (AR) is formed as a technology of great potential in the universitary education, offering the possibility of combining the digital information with the real time physics across different technological devices (tablet, smartphones, glasses …). Our study was chasing an objective double, on one hand to know the degree of motivation that the utilization of objects in format AR wakes up in the medical student and for analyzing other one if the kind of the student concerns positively in the degree of showed motivation. For the analysis of the motivation woken up in the student for the experience realized with the objects of elaborated AR a questionnaire was in use elaborated for Keller (2010), the "Instructional Material Motivational Survey" (IMMS). The sample of the study was formed by student of the first year of the Degree of Medicine of the University of Seville (Spain), who were dealing the subject of "Human Histology". We can emphasize that the realized experience called the attention of the student, and that the material they woke the curiosity up helping them to support the attention and enjoying in general with the experience realized simultaneously that the content of the presented material was relevant for his interests. Of The study we can extract the following conclusions: The instrument of diagnosis appears as a good predictor to explain the motivation, attention, confidence, relevancy and satisfaction that wakes the interaction up with AR's objects. The AR appears as a technology of great utility for the learning of the student of medicine, his incorporation to the education is easy and the gender of the students does not determine the degree of acceptance that they have of the AR.
