THE USE OF AUGMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY TECHNOLOGIES IN TEACHING AT THE DEPARTMENT OF FUNDAMENTALS OF MOLECULAR PHYSICS AND THERMODYNAMICS IN ACADEMIC LYCEUMS
Keywords:
AR technologies, VR technologies, molecular physics, thermodynamics, gas laws, visualization, virtual laboratory, heat transfer, P–V diagram, energy, interactive learning.Abstract
This article analyzes the didactic, visual, and practical advantages of using AR (Augmented Reality) and VR (Virtual Reality) technologies in teaching the course “Fundamentals of Molecular Physics and Thermodynamics.” It highlights how AR/VR makes invisible microscopic processes—such as molecular motion, energy exchange, pressure formation, and phase transitions—more understandable through interactive and three-dimensional visualization. The study demonstrates that complex topics including gas laws, P–V diagrams, heat transfer, and heat engines can be explored safely, repeatedly, and cost-effectively in virtual laboratories. The results show that AR/VR technologies significantly enhance visualization, student motivation, and practical skills, making them powerful tools for improving the effectiveness of physics education.
