Abstract

The integration of technology in education or learning domain makes a huge transformation in human wisdom and also in the way of thinking and learning. Augmented Reality is increasingly used for learning purposes as it may provide the learners what they have learned and what should have learned. This article reviews on literature concerning the elements of augmented reality which may be implemented for scientific practices in order to make science learning more motivating. The integration of multiple media in educational materials may influence learners’ motivation towards the learning process. Thus, the instructional strategy of learning materials is equally important as the content does. Content analysis of 47 articles reveals that 3D models are popularly used in augmented reality for science learning. This article further discusses the importance of multimedia elements in representing information, especially for science learning through the use of augmented reality (AR) technology.
