Abstract

This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of the peer tutorial project learning model assisted by augmented reality (AR) in improving students’ 21st-century skills. The focus of the study was to describe the improvement in students’ skills taught using the AR-assisted project and peer tutoring-based learning (PPTBL) model, with an emphasis on four main abilities: critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. This study involved a comparison between a control group and an experimental group to measure the effectiveness of the learning model. The study results showed that the average critical thinking skills reached 81%, creativity 77%, collaboration 73%, and communication 74%. Data analysis showed that the hypothesis stating that there was a significant difference in 4C skills between students who study with the AR-assisted PPTBL model and those who study with the conventional learning model was accepted at a significance level of 5% (0.05). These findings were expected to make a significant contribution to the development of innovative learning methods that can be widely applied in higher education institutions. © 2024 by the authors of this article.
