Therefore, this paper describes the integration process of game-basedlearning features outlined by Alaswad and Nadolny (2015), which are goal,interaction and feedback. The three features are designed in a learning kit calledthe “Kit Pengembara” for learning the topic of “Wind Direction” and “BearingAngels”, the subject of Geography Form 1. In addition, this Kit Pengembaraalso integrates the UniteAR application for user to complete a given task usingaugmented reality. Therefore, this paper can provide an overview to educators inthe form of their educational innovations that integrate technology to increasestudent engagement.
