Students' Acceptance Level of Augmented Reality Technology Applied to Teaching Tools Chiller Simulation System

Along with the development of technology, Augmented Reality (AR) has been used as a teaching aid to facilitate the teaching and learning process. Nevertheless, the use of AR technology in teaching and learning session in Vocational College is still at a minimal level. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the level of students' acceptance of AR technology from the aspects of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and attitude. A total of 114 students who took the Diploma in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (PPU) program at Batu Pahat Vocational College, Kluang Vocational College, Muar Vocational College and Segamat Vocational College were involved in this study. The distribution of the questionnaire for this study is using google form through the online platform. This study uses descriptive analysis method (mean and standard deviation). The reliability value for this study instrument is α = 0.890. Overall, the results of the study showed that the level of perceived usefulness, the level of perceived ease of use and the level of attitude were at a high level with a mean value (M = 4.34, M = 4.36, M = 4.25). In conclusion, the results of this study indicate that most students have a high level of acceptance of the use of AR technology in teaching and learning session. In this regard, Vocational College should strive to enhance the use of AR technology so that the teaching and learning process can be carried out more effectively

Designing An Augmented Reality Teaching Framework for Mechanical Students at College Vocational in Malaysia

With the impact of advanced technologies, people at young age have start using smartphones in their daily life. In the education sector, most researchers have started developing new teaching styles that can adapt to technology nowadays. This also including augmented reality technology that can be used as a teaching aid. However, there are no sufficient studies that analyze the suitable construct that can be formed as a framework as a reference for a mechanical teacher in College Vocational, Malaysia. In order to design a teaching framework to apply AR technology to the mechanical student the researcher performs a systematic literature review. This review analyses nine studies in the field. Based on the result that has been conducted, there are six constructs that have been explored: preparation, process, device, teaching approach, AR-type, and purpose. From this construct, several items has been extracted
