Motiv-ARCHE: co-creation of augmented reality educational content to motivate cultural and natural heritage learning
Open accessAbstract
In the past, sites such as museums or archaeological sites focused primarily on the preservation, maintenance, and conservation of heritage elements for present and future generations. However, they now face a new challenge, the lack of motivation and public engagement in visiting and creating content about the exhibited elements. This lack of interest is, since the content presented does not address the interests or needs of the visitors, leading to cognitive overload with irrelevant information. Therefore, various applications have shown that the use of immersive technologies, such as augmented reality (AR), along with content co-creation strategies and information adaptation, can enhance users’ motivation to visit these sites. Moreover, these technologies also contribute to the preservation and conservation of heritage through the creation of virtual content. This article describes the design and implementation of a system called Motiv-ARCHE for the co-creation of educational content about cultural and natural heritage using AR. Its name combines three key elements: Motiv, referring to the motivation for learning; AR, for the use of augmented reality; and CHE, because it focuses on the education of cultural and natural heritage. Motiv-ARCHE is a system that integrates immersive technologies, co-creation, and information adaptation to enhance motivation for learning about cultural and natural heritage. Moreover, it enables both experts and users to generate content without requiring advanced technical knowledge, and this content can be displayed through AR activation by image recognition and geographic location. The system also provides access to various media formats, such as audio, video, 3D models, and AR documents. Thanks to its design, which is oriented toward delivering adaptive services, it aims to provide the user with the information they need according to their characteristics and context, which could enrich their experience at heritage sites by considering both their individual characteristics and those of their context. This increases their motivation to visit these sites and to learn about the heritage they contain. The development of Motiv-ARCHE follows the Design-Based Research (DBR) methodology, an iterative approach divided into three phases: design, implementation, and analysis. In the design phases, the characteristics of Motiv-ARCHE are identified based on the literature and user feedback. During the implementation phases, the core functionalities are developed and some experiments are conducted focusing on the co-creation of heritage elements, content, and routes, as well as on access to this content and in the analysis phases, each experiment is evaluated to improve the system. The article describes three co-creation experiments with 48, 16 and 8 participants respectively and one access experiment with 44 participants. In the three co-creation experiments, the IMMS (Instructional Materials Motivation Survey) motivation test and a demographic questionnaire were applied, while in the access experiment, the IMMS motivation test, the ARAM (Augmented Reality Acceptance Model) technology acceptance test, an augmented reality activation questionnaire, and a demographic questionnaire were used. The results showed that, thanks to the use of the methodology in the first experiment and the feedback provided by users, the application progressively improved, achieving better results in subsequent experiments. Furthermore, it was found that users feel motivated both in the co-creation of heritage elements, content, and routes, and in accessing content through AR.

TL;DR
Motiv-ARCHE is a web/mobile AR system for co-creating and accessing cultural and natural heritage content, developed through Design-Based Research with iterative user experiments. Across three co-creation experiments and one museum access experiment, users reported motivation and positive technology acceptance, with improvements after user feedback.
Key findings
- Motiv-ARCHE supports co-creation of heritage elements, associated content, and routes, and AR activation by image recognition or geographic location; content types include audio, images, videos, 3D models, PDFs, websites, and texts.
- Co-creation IMMS results improved across experiments: first experiment values ranged 2.83–3.08, second 3.98–4.33, and third 3.78–4.56.
- In the Santa Clara Museum access experiment with 44 users, all reported that the recognition image associated with each heritage element worked correctly, so they never had to use the QR code; ARAM results showed trust expectancy (TE), effort expectancy (EE), and performance expectancy (PE) had the greatest influence.
- Users reported motivation both in co-creating heritage elements, content, and routes and in accessing content through AR.
Methods
- Design-Based Research (DBR) with three iterative phases: design, implementation, and analysis; each iteration included an experiment to test and improve Motiv-ARCHE.
- Co-creation experiments involved 48, 16, and 8 participants respectively (IMMS completed by 48, 11, and 8), and the access experiment involved 44 users at the Santa Clara Museum who scanned images for 10 heritage items over an average of 40 min.
- Instruments included IMMS motivation tests (28 questions, 1–5 Likert for co-creation; 36 questions, 1–7 Likert for access), ARAM technology acceptance (1–7 Likert), an image recognition questionnaire, and a demographic questionnaire; analyses used Shapiro-Wilk, Pearson, Spearman, ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U tests.
Limitations
- The paper states that experiments used a reduced number of participants (between 8 and 48) to control application use and provide personalized support, and that this number does not allow evaluation of quality attributes such as concurrency control or generality of use.
- The paper states that the IMMS co-creation test was adapted and some questions were removed, which may generate limitations in the study results; the impact of this adaptation should be analyzed, particularly regarding co-creation and its role in user motivation.
- The paper states that the adaptation module is not explained in detail and was not used in the tests; it also notes the first experiment occurred in an early development phase with system issues. Evident from the text: small samples and lack of a described control/comparison group limit generalizability.

It does not identify Vuforia as the most suitable choice for Motiv-ARCHE or say that users can upload and visualize content in real time; its conclusion names several suitable frameworks rather than preferring Vuforia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-11-02.
Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-11-02.
Cited sources are checked by gpt-6-sol.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
