Abstract

The objective of this study is to thoroughly examine the influence of AR on educational achievements by amalgamating findings from (quasi) experimental investigations. This study constitutes a meta-analysis approach, which involves analyzing previous research statistically. Specifically, it focuses on 15 articles meeting the determined criteria for data inclusion in this meta-analysis, encompassing: 1) Research Methodology: Restricted to studies carried out via experimental or quasi-experimental designs, 2) Pertinence to Research Variables: Emphasizing research directly investigating AR's impact on educational achievements, 3) Indexing: Inclusion of publications indexed by reputable databases like SINTA, DOAJ, Copernicus International, or Scopus. Statistical Measurements: Encompassing studies providing relevant statistical metrics ('r' and 't') concerning the relationship between the variables studied. The outcomes demonstrate that the evidence indicates a beneficial effect of AR in augmenting educational outcomes. This deduction is drawn from a considerable average estimated Effect Size (1.231) alongside an exceedingly low p-value (< 0.001), denoting a highly significant statistical association between AR and heightened educational achievements. Although the collective findings strongly support AR's advantageous impact on various educational aspects, further research is imperative to address acknowledged limitations and optimize the potential of AR technology in enhancing educational achievements, motivation, and engagement across diverse educational settings and student cohorts.

Abstract

Challenges in the education sector in Indonesia are not limited to numerical skills, literacy, and life skills alone but have expanded to encompass the low quality of students' attitudes and behaviors. These behaviors are reflected in self-harm actions, bullying, and can have negative impacts on students' mental health. The aim of the research is to provide a basis for the development of holistic intervention strategies based on a multiperspective approach to address self-harm behaviors, bullying, and mental health issues among students. A multiperspective approach allows for the integration of various perspectives in analyzing this complex phenomenon. This paper will delve deeply into these three issues. First, self-harm behaviors will be explained in various forms, including self-harm and addiction. Analysis is conducted involving psychological, social, and neurobiological perspectives to understand the causes and impacts of self-harm behaviors on students. Second, bullying as a social phenomenon is also analyzed in depth using a multiperspective approach. Individual, environmental, and cultural factors influencing bullying are explored through psychological, sociological, and educational perspectives. Finally, students' mental health becomes another focus of this paper. By utilizing a multiperspective approach, the author seeks to identify factors contributing to mental health issues among students. The analysis involves psychological dimensions, school environment, and social support. Overall, the study of a multiperspective approach is expected to provide deep insights into the complexity of the issues under examination. This holistic analysis is expected to serve as a solid basis for the development of policies, interventions, and better approaches in responding to and preventing self-harm behaviors, bullying, and mental health issues among students.
