Abstract

This study aims to examine the potential of augmented reality in enhancing science learning, with a particular focus on physics learning. It involves a qualitative synthesis of previous research, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative studies, that explores instructional designs using augmented reality in science learning and its effects on students' critical thinking skills. The study analyzes articles published between 2014 and 2023 in the Scopus database, with 46 articles selected for in-depth analysis and synthesis. The findings indicate that integrating augmented reality in science learning can enhance students' thinking skills, particularly critical thinking skills. The use of learning models such as discovery learning, problem-based learning, and inquiry-based learning can make learning more meaningful and increase student engagement in the learning process. No studies have been identified that assess multi-representation skills in science learning through augmented reality. Further research is essential to investigate the specific effects of augmented reality media on students' multi-representation skills.

Abstract

Purpose – As critical thinking is a key competency in science education, this study employs a meta-analysis to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model in enhancing students' critical thinking skills. This study analyzed 21 articles published between 2017 and 2024. These articles specifically discuss the effectiveness of PBL implementation in enhancing students' critical thinking skills.Methodology – The selection criteria included peer-reviewed articles published between 2017 and 2024, which provided explicit numerical data (sample size, mean, standard deviation) and a direct focus on the impact of PBL on critical thinking skills. A random-effects model was chosen due to expected variability among studies, and the effect size was calculated using Hedges' g to ensure robust findings. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 29 to calculate the summary effect, analyze heterogeneity, construct a forest plot, and identify potential publication bias.Findings – The meta-analysis revealed a significant improvement in critical thinking skills for students who experienced PBL-based learning compared to conventional methods (summary effect = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.15-1.0, p = 0.01). This shows that 57% of learning with PBL models analyzed has a significant positive effect on students' critical thinking skills. The heterogeneity test indicated (I² value = 93,9% > 25%), suggesting moderate variability among the analyzed studies. Funnel plots and Egger's regression tests indicate no risk of publication bias.Contribution– These findings emphasize the importance of integrating PBL into science curricula to foster critical thinking skills. Educators should consider structured PBL frameworks, while policymakers could support teacher training initiatives to optimize implementation. Future studies may explore longitudinal effects and variations across different educational levels.
