Learning Media Development for Basic Arithmetic Concept with Interactive Augmented Reality

Demands and needs for learning media are now increasingly complex. These demands become a challenge to build an interactive instruction system that is designed and implemented as a basic arithmetic learning media prototype in Mathematics. Every student's learning interest in Mathematics, especially basic concept of Arithmetic, might be increased by stimulating the visual senses with an Augmented Reality technology. It allows students to interact with the learning media as a visual object that is incorporated into the real world through video display. The prototype that has been developed in this research used Augmented Reality Technology that is integrated with the basic concept of arithmetic involving its operands and operators as physical marker and visual objects that appear on the Smartphone screen with a real-world background captured by the camera. This application was developed by applying Linked List Concept to store a temporary sequence of markers that are successfully read by the device then processed in sequences as simple arithmetic operations. The results of the implementation testing show a low risk of complexity and meet all the designed functions. Then the application is ready to be tested for usability as a learning media.
