Today's mature virtual simulation technology should be effectively combined with college education to give full play to better educational advantages. The history teaching supported by modern information technology paves the way for the rational distribution of educational resources and the movement of centralized users to fragmented learning…

A relatively new technology being used to deliver academic lessons is immersive virtual reality (IVR). This study examined whether IVR is a more effective instructional medium than other multimedia, such as a video on a computer monitor. Additionally, this study explored the underlying affective and cognitive mechanisms of learning in an immersive…

Object-based learning includes the active incorporation of historic artifacts into educational environments, which may yield meaningful learning experiences. However, gaining access to artifacts and coordinating object-based curricula with museum staff pose immense challenges to educators. Furthermore, digital representations of historic artifacts…

Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) consists of artificial computer-generated environments allowing a user to perceive the sensation of being present and interact in an ambience that convincingly replaces the physical world. When travel is restricted, such visualization power can be shared globally as an essential remote teaching tool for educational…

This study explored the use of immersive virtual reality enhancing university students' presence and empathy in relation to their immersive tendencies. With a first-person narrative delivered through a head-mounted display, a high-immersion virtual reality (VR) was expected to provide engaging embodied experiences, impacting the way students…

This systematic quantitative literature review (SQLR) spans from 2013 to 2023 and includes 40 research articles that meet the inclusion criteria. It explores the intersection of virtual reality (VR) and history education. This SQLR serves as a scoping of the field, discovering key contributors, publication trends, research types, geographic…

Current circumstances require the development of new methodological approaches and the use of digital technologies in education in order to maintain a sufficient level of academic performance of students. The research aims to explore the academic performance of high school students learning history with digital technologies such as Apps Quizlet…

This study examines the effectiveness of using augmented reality (AR) in gaining historical empathy skills. AR cards were used in different periods of the history lesson. A mixed design method including pre-test and post-test is used to A mixed methods research design with pre-test and post-test is used to determine the developments in empathy…

Historical empathy may be enhanced by virtual reality (VR) technologies, which provide varying degrees of immersion into other time periods and places. This study explored the effects of combining semi-immersive and fully immersive VR with a follow-up writing task to promote historical empathy with adult learners. Thirty-six participants were…

Background: With the increasing availability of immersive technologies such as 360° videos for educational purposes, research needs to shift from media comparison studies to value-added studies in order to identify conditions for effective learning with such technologies. For the educational use of history-related virtual reality media, which are…

This study investigates the challenges of teaching history to primary school students and the endeavour to develop a board game, supported by educational apps and augmented reality, to enhance the learning experience. The initiative is in response to the New Zealand Ministry of Education's mandate that New Zealand's history must be taught in all…

In today's world, technology plays a significant role in shaping our daily interactions and how we connect with the world. The rapid advancements in technology have influenced many sectors, particularly education, where integrating technology is now seen as essential rather than just a luxury. As a result, the education field has adapted over time…

"Ghosts of the Argonne" is an interactive virtual reality (VR) recreation of the World War 1 (WW1) M1897 "French 75" field artillery gun, intended to teach learners about WW1 and its impact on the world, the role of artillery and artillerymen in this war, and the stories of real soldiers who served. The "Ghosts of the…

Virtual Reality (VR) is an emerging technology with an increasing number of studies assessing its benefits in educational settings. However, there is a shortage of empirical studies aimed at evaluating the acceptance of this technology in primary education. The authors propose an extended version of the Technological Acceptance Model to examine…

This research aims to investigate the impact of using augmented reality (AR) at Muara Takus Temple as a source of history learning for students' historical understanding. Experimental research methods were involved in this research. 88 secondary school students were used as samples. They were split into two groups, the experimental group and the…
