ABSTRACT
In the context of continuous integration of information technology and subject education, more and more educators consider combining VR technology with actual education teaching, and desktop VR technology provides fresh vitality for education teaching as an emerging technology. In junior high school biology experimental teaching, there are problems such as some experimental materials are not easy to obtain, resulting in less-than-ideal experimental effects. Therefore, how to apply desktop VR in junior high school biology laboratory teaching and whether integrating desktop VR into junior high school biology laboratory teaching can help students better master biology knowledge? In this study, the tower of Dell's experience theory is used as the theoretical basis for model construction. Based on the ARCS learning motivation model and the features of desktop VR, a model of junior high school biology laboratory class teaching based on desktop VR is explored. In this study, taking a middle school in China as an example, classes with similar grades were selected as the experimental class and the control class, each with 50 students, and the lesson of middle school biology "Observe the results of flowers" was used as an example for teaching practice. The control class was taught using traditional teaching methods, and the experimental class was taught using the teaching model of middle school biology laboratory class based on desktop VR, and a paper-and-pencil quiz, the Amabile et al. The experimental data were collected in the form of paper-and-pencil tests, learning motivation scales, etc. The statistical analysis of the data led to the conclusion that the model can promote students' learning effectiveness and have different degrees of improvement on students' learning motivation, thus verifying the effectiveness of the desktop VR-based junior high school biology laboratory class teaching model.
