Augmented Reality (AR) is one of the promising technologies that has been used in the educational field. It helps to increase learners’ motivation, establish links with real-life experiences, and create contextual awareness. Yet current research in AR for education is still in its infancy and there are few studies regarding the integration of AR in language learning classroom. This study is part of an on-going pedagogical innovation project on AR-enhanced creating and sharing activities for pupils’ Chinese character learning. The study concentrates on examining the effectiveness of the designed AR activities by focusing on students’ cognitive engagement, in terms of the ICAP framework which helps to assess cognitive engagement with behavioural metric. A total of 53 grade two students from a government primary school in Singapore participated in this study. The findings of the study provide insights into designing and assessing AR-enabled activities in language classrooms.
