Summary
This collaborative project aims to serve the national interest by exploring the use of augmented reality (AR) as an educational tool in undergraduate chemistry courses. Since learning chemistry involves abstract structures and spatial reasoning, AR tools offer opportunities to help students visualize and interact with chemical phenomena in new ways. However, instructors and curriculum designers currently lack clear, research-based guidance on how to use AR effectively in teaching. This project investigates how AR applications can enhance learning by supporting student engagement with complex s
