3.4 Practical Suggestions for Integrating AR into Learning

To strengthen students’ connection to the topic and support effective knowledge building, AR can be integrated in several ways:

• Use AR as a reflection tool, where students explain virus structure using their AR model
• Combine AR with formative assessment, asking learners to identify parts or explain functions
• Encourage students to compare different virus models in AR to highlight structural differences
• Use AR presentations as a final project showcase, reinforcing learning outcomes

Through these strategies, AR becomes more than a visual aid—it becomes a tool for reasoning, communication, and deeper understanding.
