Spatial and problem-solving skill are two essential skills that are needed by students to deal with the industrial revolution 4.0. Spatial and problem-solving skills certainly are not genetically obtained but are the result of a long learning process. Augmented reality technology is one of the solutions to improve problem-solving and spatial skills. The purpose of this study is to explain why AR can improve problem-solving and spatial skills based on the study of theory and results from previous research. The method used is a literature review. Data was obtained from scientific journals and books that have been published in reputable publishers. The results show that augmented reality can improve problem-solving and spatial skill because there are interrelated relationships between these two skills and augmented reality which is a technology that combines the real world and cyberspace that has been tested in several studies which can improve both of these skills.
