This research study introduces mobile based application (Easy Learning) which embraced augmented reality technology (AR) to motivate and aid learners in studying Environmental Studies in terms of identification of animals and trees. In order to provide sufficient knowledge about trees and animals, this research focuses on safe internet browsing and summarization for trees and animals. Easy learning suggest safe videos for kids and generates knowledge based questions to evaluate themselves as well. The study also evaluates whether the students like the features of the Easy Learning and the rate of knowledge change, through pre and post questionnaires given at the beginning and at the end of the implementation of Easy Learning. The findings proves that the Easy Learning as an interactive AR based learning instrument, for Environmental Studies which improves the learning curve.
