<p>This study aimed to investigate the effects of augmented reality technology on the development<br />
of visual perception among second-year students of the Faculty of Sports Sciences at the<br />
University of Kirkuk. The study examined the results of the visual perception scale when<br />
throwing the discus, learning the technical steps, and performing a technical step test (study in<br />
progress). The researchers chose the experimental method because it suited the type of research<br />
being conducted. They used an experimental design that conducted pre-tests and post-tests on<br />
both the experimental and control groups. The researchers randomly selected a sample of 50<br />
second-year students at the Faculty of Sports Sciences at the University of Kirkuk. The main<br />
findings include: differences between the control and experimental groups in visual perception,<br />
with the experimental group performing better; differences between the control and experimental<br />
groups in discus throw performance and numerical range, with the experimental group<br />
performing better. The main recommendations include: the importance of using augmented<br />
reality technology in physical education and its integration into training programs; and improving<br />
visual representation in physical education classes.</p>
