Andersen, Martin Stolpe; Klingenberg, Sara; Petersen, Gustav Bøg; Creed, Peter A.; Makransky, Guido – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Research suggests that head-mounted displays (HMD) can spark situational interest when they are used to provide science learning experiences that are not possible in traditional classroom settings. However, few studies have investigated the lasting effects of using HMDs in an authentic instructional intervention. Objectives: We…

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…

Klingenberg, Sara; Jørgensen, Maria L. M.; Dandanell, Gert; Skriver, Karen; Mottelson, Aske; Makransky, Guido – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Immersive virtual reality (IVR) simulations for education have been found to increase affective outcomes compared to traditional media, but the effects on learning are mixed. As reflection has previously shown to enhance learning in traditional media, we investigated the efficacy of appropriate reflection exercises for IVR. In a 2 × 2…
