Abstract
This study provides an in-depth analysis of the impact, effectiveness, and future prospects of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) in educational settings. The primary objective was to explore how these immersive technologies are reshaping learning and teaching landscapes. Employing a systematic literature review and content analysis methodology, the research analyzed recent scholarly articles and reports from 2014 to 2024, focusing on AR/VR applications in education. The findings reveal that AR and VR significantly enhance learning experiences by offering immersive, interactive, and engaging environments. These technologies have been shown to improve student engagement, knowledge retention, and skill development. AR enriches traditional educational materials by overlaying digital information onto the real world, while VR facilitates experiential learning in virtual environments. However, challenges such as high costs, technical infrastructure requirements, and content development complexities were identified as barriers to widespread adoption. The study predicts a future where AR and VR technologies will continue to evolve, focusing on enhancing user experience, improving accessibility, and integrating seamlessly into educational curricula. Recommendations for stakeholders, including educators, administrators, and policymakers, emphasize the need for investment in infrastructure, educator training, content development, and collaboration with technology companies. Lastly, AR and VR technologies hold great promise for transforming educational practices. Addressing current challenges and leveraging opportunities will be key to realizing their full potential in enhancing teaching and learning experiences. Continued research and innovation in this field are essential for the effective integration of AR and VR in education.
 Keywords: Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Educational Technology, Immersive Learning.
