AR technology can facilitate immersive and interactive learning experiences that cannot bereplicated with traditional teaching methods. This methods paper discusses a novel study design andassessment framework that was designed to systematically evaluate an educational AR game-basedlearning (GBL) application (AR-GBL). Using mixed methods to assess learning outcomes over time, thisframework may help address
