Abstract Introduction. This article introduces a R+D Project funded by Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad de España (EDU-5746-P-Proyecto Rafodiun) to get to know the degree of adoption of a TAM model or technology formulated by Davis (1989). The characteristics of the model are introduced and one is formulated for the RA analysis, along with the instrument for its diagnosis. Objective. Establish the motivation and satisfaction degrees the fact of participating in experiences supported by RAproduce among university students, and delve into the technical, curricular and organizational difficulties RA could have for being applied in university formation contexts. Materials and methods. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), initially formulated by Davis (1989) was used. Results. The research work was performed by means of experimental studies made with students from several university areas, who interact with different learning objects produced under RA´s architecture, some of which can be seen at RA´s website of "Secretariado de Recursos Audiovisuales y Nuevas Tecnologías", Universidad de Sevilla (http://ra.sav.us.es/). Conclusions. RA is a really useful technology, with several possibilities to make learning easier for students from different curricular areas, but it is also necessary to recognize that more technological analysis than research on its application in the education field are being made.

Keywords : augmented reality; TAM model; TAM´s diagnosis instrument.
