La enseñanza de la geometría 3D tiene dificultades por tener que representar objetos espaciales en superficies planas. Esta investigación buscó establecer la relación entre el uso de Realidad Aumentada (RA) y la cognición espacial en estudiantes de bachillerato. La metodología fue cuantitativa, descriptiva-correlacional, de diseño transversal, utilizando el Cuestionario de Realidad Aumentada y Geometría (CRAG), el cual demostró excelente fiabilidad (Alfa de Cronbach = 0,962). Los resultados descriptivos indicaron que el 79,6% de los alumnos alcanzó niveles medios y altos en interactividad tecnológica y habilidades espaciales. El análisis inferencial usando el coeficiente Rho de Spearman mostró una correlación positiva muy fuerte (rs = 0,899; p < 0,01), lo que verifica que la RA es un mediador cognitivo. El modelo de regresión lineal (R2 = 0,820) evidenció que la tecnología explica el 82% de la mejora en la rotación mental. Se determina que la incorporación de la RA al aula fortalece la inteligencia espacial, al permitir manipular estructuras geométricas complejas mediante un andamiaje visual interactivo.
