Abstract:
Digital media and technology play a pivotal role in fostering future-oriented learning, enhancing long-term learning outcomes, and facilitating more practical applications in a user-friendly manner. Despite the inherent complexity associated with both hardware and software implementation, virtual reality (VR) presents abundant opportunities to broaden the horizons of learning. In the THI-LearningLabVR project, we have developed and regularly utilized a virtual learning environment, which has been subject to evaluation by students to enhance their learning experiences. Within two studies which were based on previous research findings, we evaluated the usability and the impact on learning and motivation of two different VR Learning Environments, one focused on a specific STEM subject and one brainstorming environment, usable for many different kinds of subjects.
