APPLICATIONS OF VIRTUAL REALITY IN EDUCATIONAL CONTEXTS
Keywords:
virtual reality, immersive learning, interactive technology, educational innovation, student engagement.Abstract
This article examines how Virtual Reality (VR) is reshaping educational practices, making learning more engaging and immersive. Unlike conventional teaching methods, VR creates a versatile environment where learners can interact with material actively. By simulating real-life situations, VR allows students to gain practical skills and knowledge that were historically confined to theoretical studies. The research underscores VR's potential to eliminate geographical limitations, cater to various learning styles, and improve both understanding and retention of intricate ideas. Nonetheless, issues such as expense, access, and teacher preparedness need to be addressed to enhance VR's effectiveness.
