Mobile augmented reality factors for learning motivation in science experiment

Previous research on Mobile AR (MAR) in science learning fall short in explaining the factors that positively affect learning motivation and did not explain how may one learning motivation be increased. Based on literature review, there is lack of studies on MAR factors in science experiment towards...

Based on literature review, there is lack of studies on MAR factors in science experiment towards learning motivation and how they should be integrated in mobile AR applications. Hence, this research determines the MAR factors for learning motivation in science experiment. Design science research methodology was adapted. This study determines the MAR factors for learning motivation in science experiment through systematic literature review (SLR) and thematic analysis, namely enjoyment, realism and usability.
