The development of learning media can be enhanced by utilizing technology, one of which is Augmented Reality (AR). AR allows students to interact directly with three-dimensional models, facilitating the understanding of abstract concepts through concrete visualization and interactive learning experiences. This study aims to determine the effectof AR-based learning media in enhancing higher-order thinking skills among fourth-grade elementary school students. A quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design was employed, with the sample divided into experimental and control groups to compare mathematics learning outcomes on the topic of geometry. The research instrument consisted of HOTS-based questions administered in pretests and posttests. The results showed a significant difference in the average posttest scores, with the experimental class achieving higher scores than the control class. The t-test using the independent sample t-test indicated a significance value of p = 0.003 < 0.05, confirming a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. Therefore, it can be concluded that AR is positively influences higher-order thinking skills, including analysis, evaluation, and creation. This technology offers an engaging and in-depth learning experience, particularly in understanding geometric concepts.
