    (La trobe University, 2024-05-31) Alqahtani, Ruba Hussain; Skarbez, Richard
    ABSTRACT (231 words) Telling stories has been the original teaching tool and a way for children to develop their literacy skills, grammar understanding, and expand vocabulary. Digital storytelling comprises sensory, visual, and aural elements for enhanced learning and teaching process using technological tools and user-designer/user- tool interaction for powerful visual and audio impacts. Immersive storytelling using augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) could be used in primary education to engage students through interactive storytelling. Immersive storytelling would enhance interest of primary students in learning new concepts which otherwise would be hard to explain to students. The issue is that students are more and more involved in the digital world and bored with traditional teaching experiences. But most people don’t understand the relevance of new technology or understand how to implement it. There are various barriers to the implementation of AR/VR in the education sector and it requires a lot of funds for equipment and training which is not present with most institutes nor do they understand the relevance of investing in such technologies. The purpose of this thesis is to determine ways in which AR/VR could be used to enhance interactive experience in primary education. Through the adopted bibliometric analysis, the thematic evolution and science mapping of AR/VR in education would be highlighted through two comparative timelines (2010-2018) and (2019-current). This research will benefit as it would enhance the teaching capability and knowledge of the students.
