Abstract
Virtual reality technology, such as Augmented Reality (AR), is becoming increasingly popular in learning. However, its integration with other learning media needs continuous innovation, and the effectiveness of its use in the learning process must also be empirically analyzed, as each learning process has its uniqueness and characteristics. This research discusses the effectiveness of E-Worksheets with Augmented Reality (E-WAR) in the laboratory learning process for Electrical Machine Courses (EMC) in higher education. E-WAR is an innovative, technology-based practical learning medium that integrates AR technology with Electronic Worksheets (E-Worksheets). A quasi-experimental research with a non-equivalent control group design, consisting of experimental and control groups, was applied in this research. The study involved 68 students as research subjects. Data on student practicum learning outcomes were collected using the Performance Assessment Rubric (PAR). The effectiveness of E-WAR was evaluated based on the analysis of differences in post-test results between the experimental and control groups using the independent sample t-test. Cohen’s d Effect Size Analysis was also used to measure the effect size of using E-WAR. The research showed significant differences in post-test results between the experimental and control groups, with the experimental group scoring higher than the control group. Furthermore, the effect size analysis results indicate that the influence of using E-WAR falls into the large category. These findings suggest that E-WAR is an effective technology-based learning medium that greatly improves student learning performance in the laboratory learning process.
