Augmented Reality Remedial Paradigm for Negative Numbers: AVCTP

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 179))

Abstract

The aim of this study was about integrating augmented reality as visualization interface tool in mathematical remedial works. This study was based on the incorrect thinking process in solving negative numbers subtraction operation involving two integers then created an algorithm for visualization of correct thinking process in solving it. The respondent of this study were 124 students aged 14 years old from two secondary schools in Malaysia. The findings were an algorithm for visualization of correct thinking process (AVCTP) and its flowchart which was created in the process of assisting software engineering process of AR visualization based remedial works in subject domain.
