This study aims to examine the possibility of implementing the Augmented Reality (AR) application in higher education by answering three questions: Which extended faculty at the Saudi Electronic University are familiar with such applications, what the perceptions do they hold toward using it in education, and what barriers do they believe may hinder implementing this technology. An online survey was designed and distributed to faculty members at two colleges selected randomly to collect data from participants. Even though the faculty were at an accepted level of familiarity with this technology, they did not use it in their classes. Results showed that faculty have a positive attitude toward the use of AR and have confidence in its potential to enrich the learning environment. This result is connected to the AR advantages the faculty were in agreement with. Results also showed that faculty have concerns about some barriers that might impact implementation of AR in the education environment, such as the lack of technical support.
