Enhancing Translation Education Through Augmented Reality (AR)

Abstract

This empirical study explores the deployment and effects of Augmented Reality (AR) in translation education, emphasizing its significant impact on student engagement, motivation, and accuracy across diverse text genres. Conducted over a 16-week period, our research utilizes a mixed-methods approach to assess AR's efficacy, especially in high-precision fields such as medical and technical translations, and its utility in literary and cultural texts. Findings demonstrate marked improvements in translation speed and efficiency with AR, coupled with enhanced accuracy and greater contextual comprehension.
