Coulomb’s law is a typical representative of the inverse-square laws that appear in various learning contexts in physics. In the usual classroom setting, most students do not have the opportunity to experimentally discover the interdependence of variables described by this law. Recently, digital technologies have become more prevalent at all levels of education. Teachers and researchers are successfully using computer-based simulations to improve physics education. Augmented reality is one of the emerging digital technologies that have the potential to improve students’ understanding of a wide range of educational topics. Nevertheless, it is advisable that students and teachers are familiar with the most efficient use of selected digital tools before using augmented reality-enriched physics lectures. In this paper, we present our augmented reality simulation called CoulombsLawAR, which could be useful for teaching Coulomb’s law.
