Abstract

The main objective of this essay is to analyze augmented reality as an unfailing technological tool for immersive learning in virtual environments. The methodology is part of a documentary-type study, in which different documents, both printed and digital, are used, for which relevant information on the subject under study is interpreted. In order to address this research, different theories regarding augmented reality, immersive learning and virtual environments are analyzed. Immersive learning is achieved through the use of technological tools applied in virtual environments, such as augmented reality, allowing the understanding of certain subjects in university students, recreating situations, in which they will help them enhance learning through experience. In short, it can be affirmed that teachers must make use of this important technological tool, since it will be able to guide the learning of skills and abilities, favoring the discovery of information connected to the real world, turning any physical place into a stimulating academic space.
