This study aims to explore the effectiveness of the use of Augmented Reality (AR) technology in improving the understanding of the concept of building space in mathematics subjects for junior high school students. The background of this study is the low ability of students to understand spatial concepts and three-dimensional visualization through conventional learning methods. The research was conducted at UPT SMP Negeri 5 Tapung Hilir with a quantitative approach and quasi-experimental design involving two groups, namely the experimental group using AR media and the control group using conventional learning. The research subjects consisted of 60 students of grade VIII who were selected purposively. The instruments used in this study include concept comprehension tests, student activity observation sheets, and learning motivation questionnaires. The results showed that the average posttest score of the experimental group reached 83.2, while the control group only obtained an average of 71.6. The gain score obtained by the experimental group (0.65) was significantly higher than that of the control group (0.42), indicating that the use of AR had a positive effect on improving student learning outcomes. In addition, the results of observations show that the use of AR increases students' active engagement during learning. As many as 87% of students stated that learning with AR is more engaging and helps them understand the shape and structure of building spaces more realistically. These findings reinforce the results of previous studies that AR technology can amplify visual representations and increase students' emotional engagement in the learning process.
