Abstract
Second/foreign language learning has been a sustained concern due to competitiveness and globalization. Commonly, elementary school students in Taiwan learn not only their native language such as Mandarin but also English and Hokkien. It is not easy to acquaint students with multiple languages at the same time. Therefore, the solution to raise the students’ interests and learning effectiveness during multi-language learning has been a hot issue. Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that blends virtual contents with the real environment, and it supports the context-aware ubiquitous learning. The application of AR is considered helpful to increase the students’ motivations by past researchers. However, most researches focus on bilingual learning including Mandarin and English, and some specific learning objects (such as image cards) are needed to provide. Accordingly, an interactive multi-language learning system is proposed in this study to improve the inadequate parts mentioned above. It is expected to promote students' motivation and learning effectiveness.
