Development of Interactive Animated Video Assisted by Augmented Reality for Enhancing Mathematical Concept Understanding

Source abstract

Mathematics learning on three-dimensional geometry in elementary schools continues to face various challenges because the subject matter is abstract, making it difficult for students to understand the concepts, characteristics, and elements of geometric solids. This condition highlights the need for learning media that provide concrete, interactive, and engaging visualizations to support a more effective learning process. This study aimed to develop an Interactive Animated Video assisted by Augmented Reality and to examine its validity and effectiveness in improving elementary students' mathematical conceptual understanding. The study employed a Research and Development method using the ADDIE model, which consists of the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. Data were collected through expert validation, classroom observation, and learning achievement tests. The findings indicate that the developed media met the criteria of being highly valid based on expert evaluations. The implementation of the media also had a positive impact on students' learning activities, mathematical conceptual understanding, and learning achievement. These findings demonstrate that the Augmented Reality-assisted Interactive Animated Video is suitable as an innovative, interactive, and meaningful mathematics learning medium to support the teaching and learning process in elementary schools while helping students develop a better understanding of mathematical concepts.
