Mobile technology has revolutionized various aspects of our lives, including
education. With the rapid advancement of mobile devices and their increasing
accessibility, educators have begun exploring new and innovative ways to
enhance learning experiences. One such innovation is the integration of
augmented reality (AR) applications into education. However, there is still
limited research about teaching and learning in a foreign language. Therefore,
the present study discusses the potential of AR technology in teaching as an
educational tool, specifically for language teaching and learning. Thus, this
paper employed the method of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic
Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) to highlight the potential of AR
technology as an educational tool. Advanced searching has been used through
Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases were the main platforms for
sources for articles. Based on the search results, we found (n=25) published
articles that associated AR in language instruction and learning were extracted
out of (n=705), from 2022 to 2023. Expert scholars decided to develop three
themes which are (1) the type of platforms used for mobile augmented reality (MAR)
applications in language instruction and learning, (2) the language proficiencies
focused on MAR applications, and (3) the impacts of MAR applications on language
instruction and learning. By showcasing MAR's potential to motivate and engage
learners, this paper underscores its significance in modern language education.
