The students were dividedinto AR group and control group, and data were then exposed to the descriptive statistics and pairedsample t test.RESULTS: The results showed that AR technology has a significant effect on the enhancement ofthe self‑regulation of students with learning disabilities.CONCLUSION: The study indicated a significant effect of AR app on the self-regulation skillsof students. The study, therefore, encouraged decision academicians to implement technologyapproaches in the disability setting.
