How Does VR Enhance Education?
A study on Education Psychology Review shows
Virtual Reality (VR) can cause students to become more interested in the course material, leading to higher levels of engagement and better performance on long-term assessments of learning. Educators can use VR to prime student interest and attention levels leading to increased engagement with learning materials.
A study on PwC shows
What takes two hours to learn in a traditional classroom lesson can be learned in only 30 minutes using VR. When you account for the extra time needed for first-time learners to review, be fitted for, and be taught to use the VR headset, VR learners still understood course material three times faster than classroom learners.
