Abstract

The research aims to reveal the relationship between the type of dimensions (3D, 2D) and the type of mental interaction (high and low) and its impact on students’ knowledge of the types of wireless networks and their components in the course “Wireless Communications and Mobile Security” based on their satisfaction with this learning, and their academic achievement. The research sample is 144 students in the second year, fourth level of the cybersecurity diploma, and they were divided into four experimental groups. The first experimental group studies with books augmented with three-dimensional models with high mental interaction, and the second experimental group studies with books augmented with three-dimensional models with low mental interaction. The third experimental group is taught with books augmented with two-dimensional models with high mental interaction, and finally, the fourth experimental group is taught with virtual books with two-dimensional models with low mental interaction. The research results that there is an interaction between the type of dimensions in augmented reality books and the mental interaction (high, low) in identifying the types of wireless networks and their components, where the high mental interaction groups excelled, regardless of the type of dimensions (3D, 2D) in the achievement test, and there was clear satisfaction for the students of the groups that study with 3D models compared to the 2D groups.
