Writing is a demanding task for learners in English as a foreign language (EFL) contexts. Students are not given sufficient practice opportunities in the classroom. Hence, they do not feel motivated to write or enjoy writing in English much, and they encounter difficulties in planning, organizing ideas, stating a clear purpose and choosing appropriate words to express their ideas while composing texts in English. Integrating advanced technologies into instruction can mitigate such problems. The main purpose of this study is to explore whether the use of AR-based materials could contribute to high school students in the process of producing texts in English. The study also seeks to explore students’ perceptions on the use of AR. The study is quasi-experimental in design. The experiment was conducted in two classes of high school students with a B1 level of English proficiency. In total 48 students participated in the study. Following the design of the AR-based materials, the classes were assigned as the experimental (N = 24) and control (N = 24) group. Both groups worked on the same topic at the same time interval. Upon completion of their compositions, the students’ perceptions of the use of AR-based materials were collected via a questionnaire. The statistical analyzes yielded significant differences in the writing scores between the groups. The findings indicated that the use of AR-based materials had a medium effect on the selected writing skills of the students. The results also showed that the students’ perceptions of the AR-based writing experience were positive. The findings suggest that AR-based writing activities increase students’ motivation towards writing, which may result in better performance.

使用增强现实编写说明文:学生的表现和看法

对于英语作为外语(EFL)语境的学习者而言,写作是一项艰巨的任务。在教室里没有给学生足够的练习机会。因此,他们没有动力去写作或喜欢用英语写作,他们在规划,组织思想,阐明明确的目的以及选择适当的词来表达他们的思想时遇到困难,同时用英语撰写文本。将先进技术集成到教学中可以缓解此类问题。这项研究的主要目的是探讨使用基于AR的材料是否可以在英语文本制作过程中对高中学生有所帮助。该研究还试图探索学生对使用AR的看法。该研究在设计上是准实验的。该实验是在两班英语水平达到B1的高中学生中进行的。共有48名学生参加了这项研究。在设计了基于AR的材料之后,将这些类分配为实验类(N  = 24)和对照组(N = 24)。两组都在相同的时间间隔上处理同一主题。完成他们的作文后,通过问卷收集了学生对使用基于AR的材料的看法。统计分析显示两组之间的写作分数存在显着差异。调查结果表明,使用基于增强现实的材料对学生选择的写作技能有中等影响。结果还表明,学生对基于AR的写作经验的看法是积极的。研究结果表明,基于AR的写作活动增加了学生写作的动力,这可能会提高成绩。
