Abstract
This study examines using Augmented Reality (AR) books as learning media to improve literacy and numeracy skills in elementary school students’ students’ Integrated Science and Social Studies (IPAS) Education. The study follows the ADDIE model stages: Analysis, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate. In implementing the AR book, the groups involved are 4th and 5th-grade students, and they are aligned with the study’s goals and the current curriculum. We also involved professional teachers, technology experts, and 120 elementary school students from 10 schools. All participants contributed generously to the application of the AR book. The implementation uses the Android OS platform, making it easy to use. After the implementation, a post-test and a questionnaire were conducted. The research data were analyzed using VOSviewer analysis, Rasch model, and statistics analysis application to test the significance level. The research results show that AR books can improve students’ literacy and numeracy skills in elementary school IPAS learning with a significance margin of 0.58 and a student response percentage of 91.8%. Thus, the use of AR books can make a significant contribution to improving literacy and numeracy skills in elementary school IPAS learning.
