Augmented Reality in Education: Revolutionizing Teaching and Learning Practices – State-of-the-Art
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The evolution and contemporary applications of instructional technology, particularly the transformative impact of Augmented Reality (AR) in education, are comprehensively explored in this study. Tracing the journey from early visual aids to sophisticated AR, the aim is to highlight continuous efforts to enhance educational experiences. The effectiveness of AR in increasing student engagement, comprehension, and personalized learning across various disciplines is critically assessed, revealing its potential to transform abstract concepts into tangible experiences. Additionally, challenges in AR adoption, such as technological constraints, the necessity for comprehensive educator training, and strategic curriculum integration, are discussed. The objective here is to identify research gaps, emphasizing the need for standardized evaluation methods, larger sample sizes, and long-term impact studies to fully understand AR’s potential. This exploration aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of AR’s capability to revolutionize education and to identify pathways for future research and development in this dynamic field.
