The Transformative Role of Augmented Reality in Education: Enhancing Memory, Motivation, and Embodied Learning

In the modern educational landscape, Augmented Reality (AR) has emerged as a revolutionary tool to bridge the gap between abstract concepts and real-world experiences. This review paper synthesizes findings from pivotal studies spanning ۲۰۱۸ to ۲۰۲۵ to examine how AR influences vocabulary acquisition, long-term memory retention, and learner motivation. By integrating theories of multimedia learning, embodied cognition, and cognitive load, this paper demonstrates that AR can improve memory recall and reduce learning time. The analysis highlights a significant shift from traditional rote memorization to an "embodied" and "gamified" approach. The paper concludes with an analysis of implementation challenges, ethical considerations of data tracking, and practical recommendations for ۲۱st-century educators.
