Abstract

According to its title, the study attempts to identify the degree of secondary school teachers in the city of Abha using Augmented Reality (AR) technology in education from their point of view, their attitudes towards it, and its relationship to some variables. Which was randomly selected, and the questionnaire was taken as a tool for data collection. Further, by adopting the aforementioned tools and methodology, the study concluded that the degree of using AR technology in education among secondary school teachers achieved a high score of (3.82) from their point of view. The study also showed that female teachers' attitudes toward using AR technology in education were positive and to a high degree, with arithmetic mean of (4.32). age, training courses), and, on the other hand, there were no statistically significant differences in the degree of using augmented reality technology in education among secondary school teachers in relation to the variables (Years of Experience and Specialization). Based on the most important results, the study recommended the need to train female teachers to produce, design, and use augmented reality content in the educational process and to work scientifically to overcome the obstacles they face in using AR technology in their teaching.
