Introduction
Hi everyone!
In which ways “virtual reality” can be used in education?
In my opinion, the application of virtual technology to learning will obviously help students’ learning. VR technology can provide a real environment for students to experience the learning scenes when they are learning some situational courses. This can increase the interest of students. In the field of aviation students need training, there is no real environment. Using VR technology can be solved.
Technology has become a significant part of the day-to-day teaching-learning process. What are the challenges faced by an educator while selecting technology to enhance their teaching?
Applying VR to the curriculum is a challenge for teachers. First of all, teachers should have rich practical experience and teaching knowledge in the field of science and technology. At the same time, teachers need to reasonably combine practical experience with traditional teaching. Secondly, THE use of VR technology can easily divert students’ attention and prevent them from focusing on traditional teaching mode in a short time. So we need to apply technology to the classroom in a reasonable way.
Thanks!
Hi Qiaoyang,
Thank you for your contribution. You mention “Applying VR to the curriculum is a challenge for teachers.

Secondly, THE use of VR technology can easily divert students’ attention and prevent them from focusing on traditional teaching mode in a short time.”
For educators, what are some strategies that could be used to address some of the challenges you highlight such as the issue of making the use of such technologies effective and meaningful so that it is purposeful?
Sincerely,

Hi Qiaoyang,
I agree with what you said, using VR technology as a teaching aid in some courses, such as aviation courses, can help students learn better. Do you have any good solutions to the problem that VR technology will divert students’ attention?
