ARchemist: Aiding Experimental Chemistry Education Using Augmented Reality Technology
Abstract
The pursuit for blending specialized knowledge with applicable skills is an emerging trend in the higher education. Therefore, proficiency in practical work is considered increasingly pivotal, especially in STEM areas. We introduce ARchemist - laboratory task management system, aiding students in controlling procedures and reflecting on their actions during hands-on exercises in chemistry. The proposed solution employs augmented reality technology to support learning and offers in-situ assistance for laboratory procedures. We present the operational research prototype designed in a user-centered process. The system was evaluated in a preliminary study in a real-case class scenario. ARchemist was assessed as advantageous over traditional guidance tools and contributing to student's confidence and efficiency, whilst being a promising endeavour to facilitate chemistry education.

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.
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.
