Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Mixed Reality in Experiential Learning: Transforming Educational Paradigms

Education Sciences, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(3), С. 303 - 303

Опубликована: Фев. 28, 2025

Virtual reality (VR), augmented (AR), and mixed (MR) have impacts on experiential learning, redefining educational paradigms through immersive interactive environments. By integrating extended (XR) technologies, learners can transcend traditional barriers to engage with dynamic simulations, historical recreations, scientific visualizations that enhance engagement, comprehension, retention. This research reviews the existing literature, highlighting benefits of XR in fostering critical thinking, collaboration, practical skill development while addressing challenges such as accessibility, cost, cognitive overload. Empirical findings from a mixed-methods approach, including case studies, faculty training programs, pilot classes, underscore XR’s efficacy improving student performance, inclusivity. paper concludes by emphasizing potential revolutionize authentic, memorable, transformative experiences across disciplines.

A meta-analysis of the effect of virtual reality technology use in education

Interactive Learning Environments, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 31(8), С. 4956 - 4976

Опубликована: Окт. 20, 2021

With the rapid development of information technologies, virtual reality (VR) has caught much attention in education. However, scanty studies have been committed to a meta-analysis its effect education terms various components. This study, through meta-analysis, systematically reviews VR technologies on educational outcomes It concludes that generally exert strong and positive influence despite some negative findings their anxiety, cognition, creativeness, gender differences, learning attitudes, learner satisfaction, engagement. Future research could expand by including more publications examine interdisciplinary cooperation.HighlightsThe use significantly improve overall at .05 level education;The achievements level;A proper VR-based design may be conducive results.

Can extended reality in the metaverse revolutionise health communication?

npj Digital Medicine, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 5(1)

Опубликована: Сен. 2, 2022

In the metaverse, users will actively engage with 3D content using extended reality (XR). Such XR platforms can stimulate a revolution in health communication, moving from information-based to experience-based content. We outline three major application domains and describe how affordances (presence, agency embodiment) improve healthy behaviour by targeting users' threat coping appraisal. discuss communication via help address long-standing challenges.

Immersive technologies have been shown to significantly improve learning as they can simplify and simulate complicated concepts in various fields. However, there is a lack of studies that analyze the recent evidence-based immersive experiences applied classroom setting or offered public. This study presents systematic review 42 papers understand, compare, reflect on attempts integrate education using seven dimensions: application field, technology used, educational role, interaction techniques, evaluation methods, challenges.

This study aims to understand the public’s perspectives, sentiments, attitudes, and discourses regarding adoption, integration, use of augmented reality virtual in education general by analyzing social media data. Due its nature, Twitter was selected platform. Over 17 million tweets were retrieved from January 2010 December 2020 four datasets created. Two them referred these technologies two their educational use. The data analyzed using text mining, sentiment analysis (e.g., polarity emotion detection), topic modeling methods.

Abstract Video is a widely used medium in teacher training for situating student teachers classroom scenarios. Although the emerging technology of virtual reality (VR) provides similar, and arguably more powerful, capabilities immersing lifelike situations, its benefits risks relative to video formats have received little attention research date. The current study randomized pretest–posttest experimental design examine influence video‐ versus VR‐based task on changing situational interest self‐efficacy management.

We also found interaction between levels perspective‐taking. direct embodiment combined high produced stronger empathy than low immersion, while perspective observer better evoking when experienced immersion. Implications gives guidance take advantage this new technology settings, apply instructional activities enhance students’ In addition, could serve reference developing introducing contents respect types more effective settings.

Stigma toward people with mental illness presents serious consequences for the impacted individuals, such as social exclusion and increased difficulties in recovery process. Recently, several interventions have been developed to mitigate public stigma, based on use of innovative technologies, virtual reality video games.This review aims systematically review, synthesize, measure, critically discuss experimental studies that measure effect technological stigmatization levels.This systematic meta-analysis was PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-analyses) guidelines included English Spanish published between 2016 2021. Searches were run 5 different databases (ie, PubMed, PsycInfo, Scopus, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect). Only randomized controlled trials included. Two independent reviewers determined eligibility, extracted data, rated methodological quality studies. Meta-analyses performed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software.Based 1158 articles screened, 72 evaluated full text, which 9 qualitative quantitative syntheses. A diversity observed, including games, audiovisual simulation hallucinations, reality, electronic contact health services users. The (n=1832 participants) demonstrated these had a consistent medium reducing level stigma (d=-0.64; 95% CI 0.31-0.96; P<.001).Innovative involving technologies are an effective tool reduction, therefore new challenges proposed discussed demonstration their adaptability contexts countries, thus leading massification.PROSPERO International Prospective Register CRD42021261935; https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42021261935.
