Abstract

This study is a systematic literature review examining the effectiveness of 3D printing integrated with Augmented Reality (AR) in Biology education. Thirteen peer-reviewed articles published between 2017 and 2025 were analyzed to evaluate three main aspects: learning effectiveness, 3D product development, and improvement in student learning outcomes or motivation. The findings indicate that 3D printing combined with AR consistently enhances conceptual understanding, technical skills, and student motivation, with reported effectiveness ranging from 49% to 90%. The learning products developed include cell models, DNA/RNA molecules, anatomical organs, flower models, and tactile tools for students with special needs, using software such as Blender, Tinkercad, and Ultimaker Cura, as well as PLA or recycled filaments. Improvements in learning outcomes were observed across cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, with average gains ranging from 20% to 83% across studies. This review confirms that integrating 3D printing with AR enriches learning experiences, promotes inclusive education, and enhances technological literacy in Biology. Future research is recommended to employ randomized experimental designs, standardize effectiveness metrics, and conduct long-term evaluations to assess knowledge retention and motivational impact more comprehensively.

His work is also published in over 30 joint anthology books, including The Women Who Do Not Wither Miss New Shoots (FAM Publishing, 2018), The Different Shapes After Chairil (YHPI, 2016), Nun (YHPI, 2015), Port Red (Riau Pos, 2015), About the City that Keeps Takbeer in Beats Chest (FAM Publishing, 2015), Bicycle to the Moon (Indopos, 2014), State of Sky (Kosakatakita, 2014), Anger (Gramedia, 2013), Locked in Own Country (AGP, 2013), Book Writing for Teens (Soedjatmoko Hall, 2013), Flows into the Sink into the Gutter (Shell, 2012), Diverse (Shell, 2012), Ukara Geni (Pawon, 2012), Reject Forgot (Unggun Religi, 2010), and Phantasy Poetica (PM Publisher, 2010). His name entered the book title of What and Who of the Indonesian Poet (YHPI, 2017). His first poetry book entitled Alpha Centauri (Shell, 2012) became a reference at the University of Washington Libraries (Seattle, USA), the Library of Congress (Washington, USA), and the University of Michigan (Michigan, USA). His another book of poetry entitled Pioneering Drizzle (Mujahid Press, 2015) and Windmill Lesson (Buku Katta, 2017) - which is a duet with Kinanthi Anggraini became a reference at the Leiden University Library (Leiden, Netherlands). In 2018, he published the book Designing 3D Rocket Components with Autodesk Inventor Professional 2017 and Simulation of Component Strength of Rocket Testing Facilities Using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2017. Several times he became a keynote speaker about the science and technology in Solopos FM radio. In 2017, he was elected to be one of the LAPAN Change Agents. In 2018, he received a scholarship from LAPAN to continue his studies at the Master Program of Mechanical Engineering in Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS), Surakarta and graduated with cum laude predicate in 2020. Currently, he is working as a civil servant at the Indonesian National Research and Innovation Agency (BRI
