We report on the initial implementation of the MARVLS augmented reality app in three sections of introductory physics courses at Siena College. The courses adopted models with emphasis on the relationship between 2-D and 3-D representations of topics in magnetism. This app is intended to provide engaging and interactive visualizations of abstract concepts. The AR approach has a unique capability to illustrate relationships between physical and mathematical representations. The models were displayed on foam Merge cubes, allowing students to manipulate and explore the 3D representations. The app offers interactive features to control model components, animations, and connections to 2D representations and equations. We compare pre- and post- assessment data and note modest gains for electromagnetism concepts, and in spatial reasoning for the calculus-based physics sections. Further analysis indicates moderate improvement in specific magnetism questions, and a general indication by Likert scale that students found the AR materials helpful to understand magnetism.
