Using mobile 3D models for demonstration unaccessible laboratory experiments and objects during study chemistry and biology in basic school

Problem statement. The technological development of augmented reality is becoming more impressive every year. But, despite all the advantages and possibilities of using augmented reality in the modern world, it is still in its infancy in the field of education. One of the biggest benefits of using augmented reality technology in natural sciences is its ability to visualize abstract concepts, reproduce expensive, dangerous or time-consuming experiments, and showcase rare objects. These augmented reality abilities are great for teaching chemistry and biology in basic school, as they can visualize inaccessible objects, processes and phenomena in the classroom without using large time, material and technical resources. At the moment, sufficient experience has not been accumulated in the application of this technology in the study of natural sciences, in particular chemistry and biology. Thus, there is a need to conduct an appropriate scientific and pedagogical research to determine the effect of the introduction of augmented reality technology in the study of natural sciences. Methodology. The methods of designing a learning model, pedagogical experiment, observation, conversation, and generalization of the experience gained were used. Results. The results of a pedagogical experiment on the use of mobile 3D models to demonstrate inaccessible laboratory experiments and objects in the study of chemistry and biology in basic school, aimed at analyzing and highlighting the most significant examples of the application of this technology in practice. The essence and features of the use of mobile 3D models in the study of chemistry and biology are described. Significant aspects of the use of such technology in the modern school are revealed. Conclusion. The experience of organizing lessons with a demonstration of inaccessible laboratory experiments and objects in the study of chemistry and biology in a basic school allows us to conclude that there are significant differences in the educational process implemented using mobile 3D models and augmented reality technology.
