A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF AUGMENTED REALITY ON TEACHING MODULES IN VOCATIONAL EDUCATION

Abstract

This study investigates how AR can be incorporated into educational modules, with an emphasis on its ability to change conventional teaching methods. Augmented reality improves the learning experience by developing immersive environments that encourage engagement with digital material, helping students connect theoretical understanding with real-world practice. This review focuses on how AR can enhance student participation, drive, and mastery of skills, especially in vocational and technical training. The literature review shows major obstacles in the implementation of AR, such as restricted infrastructure access, insufficient technical knowledge among teachers, and the lack of standardized frameworks for creating AR-based educational materials. Despite its proven benefits, these obstacles prevent a wider implementation of AR in education. The purpose of this review is to summarize the latest research on the effectiveness of AR in educational environments and to pinpoint areas that require attention for its successful integration. This review uses the PRISMA framework to systematically analyze 30 academic articles, investigating themes like the efficiency of AR in education and the obstacles in its implementation.In summary, upcoming studies need to concentrate on creating standardized frameworks and overcoming infrastructural limitations in order to fully utilize AR for improving educational practices in diverse learning settings.
