Integrating Virtual Reality in Instruction: Cutting-Edge Techniques for Enhanced Learning
Abstract
Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a groundbreaking tool in education, offering immersive and engaging learning experiences. This review article explores the cutting-edge techniques employed in integrating VR into instruction and its impact on enhanced learning. Tracing the evolution of VR in education, we highlight its journey from basic simulations to sophisticated immersive environments. The discussion encompasses the creation of personalized learning experiences, adaptive instruction, and the promotion of collaborative learning in virtual spaces. While acknowledging the transformative potential of VR, the review also addresses challenges such as cost, accessibility, and health concerns. Finally, we delve into future directions, examining emerging technologies and innovations shaping the future of VR in education. This comprehensive exploration aims to provide educators, policymakers, and researchers with insights into the dynamic landscape of VR-enhanced learning, emphasizing the importance of responsible and ethical implementation for the benefit of learners worldwide.
