Most preschool teachers introduce shapes, letters, and pronunciation to children, however, they often ignore technical aspects such as the position of the tongue when pronouncing words. Preschool teachers place less emphasis on this aspect, which can affect children’s pronunciation and reading/speaking skills. Children’s mastery of learning is influenced by several factors, therefore, teacher’s understanding is important to improve their teaching practices. Teachers should be skilled in teaching various disciplines because they are required to teach various subjects at the preschool level. In relation to that, more research needs to be done to compare the teaching methods or approaches used by preschool teachers. Therefore, this study aims to identify the effectiveness of the latest application of 3D technology in the preschool context to increase students’ interest in learning as well as the approach that can be used by teachers during teaching and learning in preschool. The production of 3D applications for children can be interesting and enthusiastic in learning a subject in class. Children feel fun and not bored if they use 3D applications in class. The study used the Preferred Reporting Items Framework for Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) to conduct a systematic literature review of the literature of 3D applications for learning published between 2019 and 2023 obtained from Scopus, DOAJ and Mendeley.
