Valentine, Andrew; Van der Veen, Tom; Kenworthy, Patrick; Hassan, Ghulam Mubashar; Guzzomi, Andrew; Khan, R. Nazim; Male, Sally A. – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
A barrier to using head mounted display (HMD) virtual reality (VR) in education is access to hardware for large classes. This paper compares students' learning when engaging with an HMD VR simulation as the operator and as the observer, to evaluate whether benefits of HMD VR can be achieved without requiring all students to operate the equipment.…
