Abstract
To understand the role of introducing and improving the quality of education in higher education institutions using augmented reality (AR), the authors of the article tried to identify the following questions: What contribution can these technologies make to education? What are the results of research in the field of augmented reality? How do augmented reality technologies affect learning processes? In this article, we search the Scopus, Science Direct, and Web of Science databases for articles describing the use of augmented reality technologies in higher education and their impact on learning outcomes. We identified 150 articles, of which, after several stages of verification and selection, 29 articles were left at the extraction stage, from which 16 reviews and 13 empirical research articles containing a full review and presentation were extracted. The results of the research showed that 80% of the reviewed studies provide positive results in the field of STEM and physics, as there is a more improved visualization and representation of complex processes. Nevertheless, the effect of AR is poorly understood. The conducted research shows the potential for improving the quality of education through AR technology and presents opportunities for integrating them into the educational process.
