A System to Improve Vocabulary for Enhancing Reading Comprehension in Primary School with the Help of Augmented Reality

Abstract

Peru has achieved unsatisfactory results in international and national reading assessments. In the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), Peru obtained 398 points, almost 100 points below the average. The country ranked 64 out of 72 participants. In the national ECE assessment, the higher the school grade, the less the achievement percentage of academic goals. Said percentage accounts for 46.4% and 31.4% in the 2nd and 4th grade of primary school, respectively, and 14.3% in the 2nd grade of secondary school. The factor that causes this problem is a poor vocabulary.
