Virtual Booth

The integration of technology in the field of education has shown that the use of technology has been able to increase motivation in the learning process. Augmented Reality (AR) technology is one of the technologies that has the potential to develop virtual objects into the real world that are interactive in reality. This will help attract interest in understanding the contents. Introduction to Information Technology is one of the courses in the Diploma in Digital Marketing program. A chapter has been selected from the content to build interactive content using AR technology. Students only refer to notes that have been uploaded in Google Classroom. It is possible that students are less interested in reading notes and find it difficult to understand the content. There were no interactive activities that occurred during the learning process. The objectives of this project are to create interactive learning using Smart AR as well as to enhance students' understanding of the selected topic. Research about Smart AR will be conducted to find the Smart AR usage in other lessons. Based on the research, the idea to create interactive learning using Smart AR has been identified for selected topics. Zappar apps will be used to scan the code that has been matched.  Once the code is matched, an object will be displayed in the real environment. The use of this application is expected to have a better effect on lecturers and students in formal learning methods due to the increased use of smartphones and mobile devices among students. As a result of this innovative idea, students are expected to use this application as an effective reference material for learning activities. The result of this innovative idea is to encourage the students to access teaching materials easily at any time.
