Abstract

In this paper, the authors examine the problems, capabilities, and benefits of implementing
augmented reality technologies in higher education and integrating them into formal e-learning in the form of
edutainment. The main goal is to design and develop an educational interactive game that features
augmented reality and would enrich the teaching process with interesting content as well as motivate
students and stimulate their acquisition of knowledge. The developed game is based on current internet
mobile technologies, with AR aspects realized through the use of the Vuforia platform, and is implemented
as a part of a smart classroom. It includes a web application for teachers to create tasks, small parts of the
curriculum that are being tested, a mobile application that students use to interact with the game and solve
tasks, an augmented reality module that supports distance learning and a component for integration with
Moodle LMS. This paper will focus on the AR aspects of the game and the benefits that can be gained with
its use in education. The game has been implemented within the educational process at Faculty of Organizational Sciences, University of Belgrade.
