Pengenalan Dan Pemanfaatan Teknologi Augmented Reality Untuk Meningkatkan Motivasi Belajar Siswa Pada Raudatul Athfal Nurul Iman

Abstract

This Community Service activity was carried out at Raudatul Athfal Nurul Iman which is located at Kp. Rt.03/03 Market, Karangtengah Village, Cibadak District- Sukabumi Regency-West Java, on 25 – 26 November 2023. Raudatul Athfal (RA) is a level of early childhood education (i.e. ages 4-6 years) in the form of formal education, under the management of the Ministry of Religion. Learning for children can be boring, so teachers must be smart in choosing ways and methods to motivate them so that learning becomes fun for them. The development of increasingly sophisticated technology makes teachers confused about whether to use appropriate methods in teaching children. The solution to this problem is to introduce the Augmented Reality (AR) method, where this method provides the opportunity to stimulate students' intellectual curiosity with the augmented reality presented to them. And useful as an educational medium for any knowledge. From the results of this Community Service activity, it was obtained that the level of participant satisfaction was 53%, they were very satisfied, 20% were satisfied and the remaining 27% of respondents felt quite satisfied. It is hoped that this activity will provide good benefits for the institution, especially the teachers who teach Raudatul Athfal.
