The growing influence of technology has prompted numerous scholars to explore how virtual reality (VR) affects performance. This study aims to validate the technology acceptance model (TAM) for VR in collaborative learning to enhance performance. We employed a questionnaire for data collection, distributed to 423 master's students in China…

The metaverse is a virtual reality space that provides a novel and significant environment, fostering educational opportunities and serving as a rich platform for innovative forms of learning. This bibliometric analysis uses the Scopus database as a source for review, employing the PRISMA method to identify 270 articles, with visualisation…

In this case study a digital game "Fantasy Ice Frolicking" was developed to evaluate the application of digital technology in the transmission of cultural heritage. This study adopted multiple qualitative research methods. Data were collected and analyzed through literature analysis, field research, interviews, observations, and user…

Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is expected to create a greater sense of presence that might improve students' laboratory learning experiences. However, little research has verified the influence of presence on students' perceptions toward immersive laboratory learning. The current study, which is based on the expectation confirmation model,…

Students are unable to view each other's VR content created with 360-degree video technology using head-mounted displays and discuss it in real-time. This limitation may confine the application of 360degree video technology in the field of intercultural learning to merely passive observation of cultural content on individual devices, thereby…

Digital teachers represent an innovative fusion of media and artificial intelligence (AI) within online educational environments. However, the specific ways in which the appearance anthropomorphism of digital teachers influences the delivery of different knowledge types remain insufficiently understood. Drawing on Embodied Learning Theory and…

Augmented, virtual, and mixed reality offer digital alternatives for implementing innovative educational processes, significantly expanding opportunities in university education due to the available resources and the psycho-evolutionary development of students. This study aimed to analyze the scientific production on this topic in Scopus using…

The traditional educational approaches in art classrooms have increasingly fallen short of addressing the needs of learners in an era marked by rapid technological advancements. Augmented reality (AR), as a leading representative of these emerging technologies, has recently been integrated into traditional educational methods, repeatedly…

Incorporating technology into educational processes is increasingly necessary to address the complexities of contemporary learning environments. This study investigates the impact of Augmented Reality (AR) on the academic performance of third-grade students in the areas of graphs and geometry. A quasi-experimental design was employed, comparing a…

The development of classroom-based formative assessment is crucial for preservice teachers. This study investigated the extent to which Virtual Reality (VR) simulation may improve teacher trainees' self-efficacy and influence their preferences regarding classroom-based formative assessment practices. A total of 66 pre-service language teacher…

In an increasingly globalized world, developing intercultural competence in higher education is highly valued. While there has been a shift towards remote intercultural learning methods, these approaches often lack authentic and immersive experiences. To address this gap, the present study uses spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR) to…

With the development of virtual reality technology, 3D multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) have attracted increasing research attention and are thought to bring many learning benefits in higher education. However, the widespread and sustained application of MUVEs in higher education lies in learners' intention to use them, but the mechanism…

As a key professional competence of teachers, empathy involves whether teachers can stand in the student's position to pay attention, understand their behavior, and make reasonable judgment and explanation of it. Researchers have discovered that 360° virtual reality (360° VR), a relatively recent form of media, can be particularly powerful in…

With the continuous development of embodied cognition theory and virtual reality (VR) technology, its application in teaching has been paid more and more attention by researchers. However, there are still few practical studies on the combination of VR technology and embodied learning. Starting from literature research, the paper analyzes the…

This study explores the effectiveness of Virtual Reality (VR) in Chinese as a second language (CSL) vocabulary learning from the international students' perspective. A new theoretical framework of VR-based vocabulary learning was designed and verified to serve the investigation. A total of 30 international students learning CSL in a Chinese…
