Risda Putri Indriani; Tri Handayani Kurniati; Rizhal Hendi Ristanto – Journal of Science Learning, 2024
In biology learning, the object of a virus cannot be seen directly. Augmented reality (AR) technology can help visualize the object of a virus in 3D, making it easier for students to learn about viruses. Therefore, this research aims to develop an AR-based learning media product called ARVi. ARVi was created using the ADDIE model, which consists…
