Abstract

New studies on Physical Education are appearing, showing that technology can enhance the educational process. This article describes a technology-supported learning process on orienteering as a physical activity in the natural environment. By using a case study with 65 university students and one teacher, the research allowed us to analyze how ubiquitous learning, through the use of technological tools (Augmented Reality, geolocation, etc.) supported learning of orienteering in the natural environment. Among other findings, ubiquitous learning stimulated the learning process in different physical and virtual spaces, better acquisition of orienteering contents, digital competence, and learning at different times. Apart from these potentialities, some difficulties also emerged during the process, such as concerns about the dangers of technology overshadowing students’ connections with the natural environment, lack of internet coverage, and others.
