By using the developed AR application, students will be able to learn aboutdiverse science topics more efficiently and visually. The AR mobile application allows the userto project a 3D (3-Dimensional) AR model of science topics on a real-world surface (such as atable or a piece of paper). The users will be able to interact with the model as if it existed outsideof the mobile application using touch interfaces.

studyingengineering remain relatively stable throughout college; so understanding what motivates studentsto pursue an engineering career is important for developing strategies to engage students early intheir community college pathway [16], [17].Our study suggests that men and women have similar motivations for studying engineering. Surveyrespondents indicated that they were most motivated by intrinsic behavioral and psychologicalfactors, such as a desire to build things. Students also reported a high degree of social goodmotivation (i.e. a belief that technology and engineering skills contribute to the good of society).Unlike previous research using the same survey instrument with undergraduate students at four-year universities [16], women in the current
