While the number of augmented reality educational applications (AREAs) has increased in the recent decade, the actual uptake of AREAs in real-life contexts has been low. Our systematic review showed that little attention was paid to the teacher’s perspective of AREAs. A handful of studies with teachers showed that the lack of equipment and inade-quate support hindered the AREA uptake. However, these studies had a severe limitation: many of the participating teachers did not have any interaction experience with AR. Hence, we conducted a survey targeting teachers with actual experience of deploying AR in teaching. Results showed that teachers held positive views about the educational values of AR and wanted to use it more for teaching. To meet this goal, certain factors need to be improved: quality devices, teacher training, user experience of AREAs, and coverage of AR content. We derived teacher requirements to address the identified needs.
