Construct3D: An Augmented Reality Application for Mathematics and Geometry Education

By Hannes Kaufmann

Abstract

Construct3D is a three dimensional geometry construction tool specifically designed for mathematics and geometry education. It is based on the mobile collaborative augmented reality system "Studierstube". We describe our efforts in developing a system for the improvement of spatial abilities and maximization of transfer of learning. Means of application and integration in mathematics and geometry education at high school as well as university level are being discussed. Anecdotal evidence supports our claim that Construct3D is easy to learn, encourages experimentation with geometric constructions and improves spatial skills.
