Abstract

This study explores the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) as an innovative tool for enhancing primary school science education, particularly in simplifying complex scientific concepts. The research aims to design and develop an interactive AR-based learning model that breaks down these intricate concepts, making them more accessible and engaging for young students. Traditional methods of teaching science often rely heavily on two-dimensional illustrations and passive learning techniques, which limit students' ability to fully grasp and connect with abstract topics such as the human body, microorganisms, and the solar system. AR, with its unique capability to overlay digital information onto the physical world, provides an immersive and interactive experience, enabling students to visualize, manipulate, and interact with scientific phenomena in three dimensions, thereby fostering a deeper understanding. The research draws on established learning theories to design and evaluate an interactive AR learning model. To guide the development process, the Scrum methodology, known for its iterative and collaborative approach, is employed to ensure continuous refinement and improvement of the AR model. Furthermore, the research investigates practical considerations for integrating AR into classroom settings, addressing potential challenges such as device affordability, accessibility, and compatibility with existing educational infrastructure, as well as technological constraints. The outcomes of this study are expected to provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of AR-based learning tools, laying a strong foundation for future advancements in educational practices. Ultimately, this research aims to promote STEM literacy, inspire curiosity, and transform science education for primary school students.
