Description
Summary:This study used a social network analysis and a content analysis to identify 52 teachers' perceptions to investigate the mechanisms of teachers' roles and teachers' perceived support from a learning community to overcome barriers to AR-integrated STEM teaching. The findings revealed that when teachers occupy more powerful and central roles in the AR-integrated STEM teaching community, they may perceive higher-order support for overcoming the corresponding barriers to AR-integrated STEM teaching. Furthermore, this study developed a framework for promoting teachers' professional development in AR-integrated STEM teaching by clarifying the hidden role and actual support, which was rarely emphasized in past studies.
