Keywords:
Augmented Reality, Foreign Language Learning, Educational Technology, Immersive Learning, Pedagogy, Student EngagementAbstract
This paper explores the implementation of Augmented Reality (AR) technologies in foreign language education, emphasizing their capacity to foster immersive, interactive, and contextual learning experiences. Drawing from empirical research conducted in secondary schools, the study evaluates the pedagogical benefits of AR, including increased learner motivation, improved vocabulary retention, and enhanced engagement. Challenges such as digital infrastructure, teacher preparedness, and accessibility are also examined. The findings indicate that AR holds considerable promise for transforming traditional language instruction into dynamic, student-centered experiences.
