Introduction
The widespread existence and the acceptance of virtual reality technology in the education space are inevitable in today’s world.
The ways of learning and the students have evolved with the technology to experience superior means of education through VR.
Along with the evolution of students and technology, there are so many ways in which the teachers have also evolved along the VR journey, allowing them to impart education in an enhanced manner.
Virtual reality in teaching has created many wonders and has helped the teachers to explore new novel ways of imparting education and subsequently, allowing students to explore their creativity
Virtual Field Trips
Virtual field trips are one of the best ways in which teachers can engage the students and help them learn about any specific place or monument.
We all understand that going on a field trip is an exciting thing for the students and happens at intervals in the school time that keeps the students excited.
Virtual field trips provide the possibility of taking the students on a VR field trip often compared to the conventional ones keeping the excitement alive.
VR field trips engage the students in an immersive environment and help teachers to impart learning in a fun way.
Game-based learning
Talking about the fun way, game-based learning has been one of the top contenders to make students learn through a game
While game-based learning has been existing since the olden times or during the days of digital learning, virtual reality provides a completely different dimension for game-based learning.
The visual, immersive, and engaging environment that virtual reality provides can upgrade the intensity of game-based learning and improve the way students learn.
Skills training
It is an undeniable fact that communication and soft skills training are not given importance as much as the academic subjects.
Also, the skill training requires a different approach to teaching the students compared to academics.
The infusion of virtual reality in skills training is a boon to skill educators, which helps them in ideating the concepts of skills training creatively and visually.
This enables the skills teachers to create personas in skill training and engage the students with creative methods
Education for students with special needs
‘Special needs’ as the name suggests requires extra attention and care for the peers with special needs which can be achieved with ease through virtual reality in teaching.
As virtual reality is a flexible technology on which malleable courses can be built that are customized for students with special needs.
VR-based special needs education modules help the teachers in giving learning control and better accessibility of experiencing education through sensory capabilities of VR
This enables a peer with special needs to experience education as the other peers thereby increasing their value of education and the sense of belonging to something as the others.
Conclusion
Above mentioned are only some of the many examples where VR helps teachers in educating their students.
No matter the magnitude of VR’s infusion in teaching, the impact that is created by the technology in teaching and helping the students is commendable.
Apart from the above examples, VR helps extensively in teachers to impart language learning, psychology learning, medical learning, and a lot more in different levels.
