Abstract: Augmented reality is one of the key issues in the area of improving visual thinking in science courses such as Mathematics. Augmented reality also offers a significant and effective role in the educational process. The current study aimed to investigate the effect of augmented reality in improving visual thinking of 10th-grade students in mathematics in Jordan. To achieve the objectives of the study, the methodology used includes the application of the semi-experimental approach and augmented reality technology. The methodology used also includes preparing a test to measure visual thinking comprising (20) multiple-choice items used as a pre-and post-test, and its validity and reliability are verified. The study sample consists of (57) female students purposefully selected from the 10th-grade students at the Jerash Model Schools for the first semester of 2020/2021. The study sample is divided into two groups as follows: one is an experimental group consisting of (28) female students taught by the augmented reality technology, and the second is a control group consisting of (29) female students taught in the traditional method. The results of the study show that there are statistically significant differences at the level of (α = 0.05) in the development of visual thinking in favor of the experimental group students taught by the augmented reality technology. The study also shows that there are differences in the performance of the experimental group students in each skill of visual thinking.
