Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? The review identifies increased cognitive load and complexity of immersive AR environments, potentially leading to learner distraction or affective overload, as a key limitation. → Manjeet Singh Usma 2025
q3 i? The review also identifies technological constraints, usability challenges, and methodological inconsistencies in analytics approaches as limiting broader implementation and interpretation. → Manjeet Singh Usma 2025
Evidence¶
Manjeet Singh Usma 2025¶
Manjeet Singh Usma, Shaun Bangay and Atul Sajjanhar. (2025). Augmented Reality Enhanced Analytics for Education: A Systematic Review. Journal of Learning Analytics 12(3). https://doi.org/10.18608/jla.2025.8447
q3 · i? · review · r2
Systematic review synthesis of limitation codes (Table 11) across the reviewed studies. The review attributes the cognitive overload point to Olea-Ibarra et al. (2025) and the constraints/inconsistency point to Senthil Pandi et al. (2024).
"A key limitation is the increased cognitive load and complexity associated with immersive AR environments, potentially leading to learner distraction or affective overload (Olea-Ibarra et al., 2025). Additionally, technological constraints, usability challenges, and methodological inconsistencies in analytics approaches limit broader implementation and interpretation across diverse educational contexts (Senthil Pandi et al., 2024)."
