Makransky, Guido; Petersen, Gustav B.; Klingenberg, Sara – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Science-related competencies are demanded in many fields, but attracting more students to scientific educations remains a challenge. This paper uses two studies to investigate the value of using Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) laboratory simulations in science education. In Study 1, 99 (52 male, 47 female) seventh (49) and eighth (50) grade…

Makransky, Guido; Andreasen, Niels K.; Baceviciute, Sarune; Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
We investigated the instructional effectiveness of using an interactive and immersive virtual reality (IVR) simulation versus a video for teaching scientific knowledge in 2 between-subjects experiments. In Experiment 1, 131 high school students (84 females) used a science simulation that involved forensic analysis of a collected DNA sample in a…
