Abstract The change in civilization aimed at the industrial revolution 4.0 and the era of society 5.0 is a discourse in the world of education. Learning activities are a major part of education at schools, thus, they require learning devices and teaching materials updates. The development of learning resources, such as electronic student worksheets, can be used as a solution to obtain 21 st -century skills. This study was aimed to analyze teacher and students’ perceptions about augmented reality-assisted worksheets with STEM approach in physics learning. The research was conducted at high schools in Lampung Province involving 139 twelfth-grade students and 16 physics teachers. The method used was the mixed-method. The research instruments used were questionnaires and telephone interviews. The results showed that teachers have not fully used augmented reality-based teaching materials STEM approach. The types of teaching materials needed by students and teachers are interactive teaching materials integrated with STEM. STEM allows students to deepen their abilities in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, so it is necessary to develop augmented reality-assisted worksheets with STEM approach to face the challenges of the industrial revolution 4.0 and meet the competency standards in the 21 st -century, namely the critical-thinking ability on magnetic field material.
