Cells and subcellular structures are abstract and complex subjects, and often difficult to be understood by students who are visually stimulated and  have a high level of ICT knowledge and skills. Considering these characteristics, and the fact that visualization facilitates learning in cell biology, the main objective of this paper is to describe a classroom experience using augmented reality for cell visualization through an app for smartphones. This methodology had a playful characteristic and stimulated student enthusiasm and participation. The evaluation of the app by the students was very positive. Furthermore, we argue that the use of digital educational objects through mobile phones may contribute to learning about cellular structure, a very complex subject. Células e estruturas subcelulares são assuntos abstratos e complexos e, muitas vezes, difíceis de serem entendidas pelos estudantes. Esses, por sua vez, têm grande facilidade com as Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação sendo uma geração visualmente muito estimulada. Considerando essas características, e o fato de que a visualização facilita a aprendizagem em biologia celular, este trabalho relata uma experiência em sala de aula usando realidade aumentada para visualização da célula através de um aplicativo para smartphones. Essa metodologia se revestiu de um caráter lúdico, estimulou o entusiasmo e a participação dos estudantes e foi avaliada de forma muito positiva pelos mesmos. Além disso, indicou que o uso de objetos educacionais digitais através de smartphones pode contribuir para o aprendizado sobre a estrutura celular, um assunto muito complexo. ark:/s23449225/6ip0kinz7  Asociación de Docentes de Ciencias Biológicas de la Argentina 2021-07-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evluado por pares application/pdf text/html https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/25276 10.59524/2344-9225.v24.n2.25276 Journal of Biology Education; Vol. 24 No. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 123-136 Revista de Educación en Biología; Vol. 24 Núm. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 123-136 2344-9225 0329-5192 10.59524/2344.9225.v24.n2 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/25276/35114 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/25276/35115 Derechos de autor 2021 Ruth Janice Guse Schadeck, Jair Pontes https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
