Abstract

This study aims to assess the efficacy of module with augmented reality (AR) in number sense material in improving the social interaction skills of autistic children in regular kindergarten in East Java. The research method was the design-based research (DBR) to build and develop the design based on the research need. Data was gathered by observing the child's social interaction abilities, and pretest and posttest evaluation. The data analysis using the N-gain to compare the results the study's results indicated that implementing a E-module with AR positively impacted autistic children's social interaction and number sense learning. AR-based module facilitates intellectual pursuits and is based on the sustainable development goals (SDGs), enabling children to active and access the accessible learning material while ensuring a comfortable learning experience. This enables the utilization of children's communicative abilities within educational, communal, and family settings. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
