Abstract

The present study provides a descriptive bibliometric analysis of publications related to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or/and Augmented Reality (AR) in science education, both in Early Childhood Education and Primary School. The research analyzes the various applications of these technologies, the learning benefits they provide, and the challenges teachers face. Through the review of 20 scientific articles, it is found that these technologies enhance students' active engagement and the teaching process, while teachers encounter difficulties in their use due to limited resources and knowledge.
