Abstract
Collecting in-vivo data from location-aware, augmented reality (AR) settings is challenging. This study explored the ecological validity of three data collection approaches, based on students' perceived intrusiveness and the assessment of the technical quality of the data. Eighteen 11th grade students participated in three conditions: (a) tablet-based audio recording, (b) researcher-led videotaping, and (c) head-mounted wearable cameras. Analyses showed that the action cameras hold more promise as a method for collecting data in AR settings.
