Aim/Purpose: The study seeks to utilize Augmented Reality (AR) in creating virtual laboratories for engineering education, focusing on enhancing teaching methodologies to facilitate student understanding of intricate and theoretical engineering principles while also assessing engineering students' acceptance of such laboratories. Background: AR, a…

The metaverse is a mixed blend of digital and tangible worlds, indicating the future directions of Internet sector development. This study aimed to assess the factors affecting students' intentions to use a metaverse platform. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology was applied as the research model. Data were collected using a…

Chemical engineers must learn to connect concepts across vastly different scales, spanning from molecular structures to industrial processes. Here, we explore the use of a virtual-reality simulation with a companion video of an experiment to help undergraduate students connect nanoscale fundamentals to macroscale engineering observations.

Immersive virtual reality (i-VR) is a powerful tool that can be used to explore virtual models in three dimensions. It could therefore be a valuable tool to supplement anatomical teaching by providing opportunities to explore spatial anatomical relationships in a virtual environment. However, there is a lack of consensus in the literature as to…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the uses of Industry 4.0 technologies in the area of education and how they contribute to learning in addition to highlighting at what educational level they are used. Design/methodology/approach: A systematic literature review was carried out in the Scopus (Elsevier), Web of Science and…

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…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact explicit teaching of metacognition had on preservice teachers' metacognitive awareness and accuracy of whole group discussions using virtual simulations. One class of preservice teachers was randomly assigned to the explicit metacognitive teaching group, while the other class was assigned to…

Advanced regional jet simulators, specifically the Bombardier and Embraer series, have grown in popularity within the collegiate aviation world over the last two decades. Curricular and program applications for these simulators made way for improvements to advanced systems and crew resource management (CRM) courses, academic research, and student…

Emotional contagion is an intriguing subject in many academic fields, and it is also relevant in collaborative learning where learners share a physical or virtual space. We aimed at exploring the possibilities of motivating, fascinating, and experiential elements of virtual reality (VR) in a collaborative learning context, with a focus on…

Augmented Reality (AR) technology is one of the latest developments and is receiving ever-increasing attention. Many researches are conducted on an international scale in order to study the effectiveness of its use in education. The purpose of this work was to record the characteristics of AR applications, in order to determine the extent to which…

In the context of Indian education, the emphasis transcends mere knowledge acquisition, extending to the cultivation of a profound respect for duties, values, and overall well-being. The overarching objective is to mold students into responsible global citizens, equipping them with the necessary skills and values for meaningful contributions to…

Technology is increasingly being integrated into classrooms worldwide to enhance learning outcomes, and simulation technologies are becoming more popular to create realistic scenarios in controlled academic settings. However, simulation studies in agricultural education have been limited, making it difficult to assess the impact of simulation…

Virtual Reality (VR) shows the potential to tackle the limitations and deficiencies of traditional microteaching training by offering an intricate and lifelike environment that helps pre-service teachers to develop their teaching skills. However, the effects of VR training on each teaching skill sub-dimension remain inconclusive. This study…

This study proposed a low-cost, easy to set up and easy to modify virtual classroom simulation environment, "CartoonClass," and tested its impact on 27 pre-service primary school teachers' noticing development during a semester-long mathematics methods course. The participants' perceptions of using CartoonClass were also examined. A…

A growing body of research has supported the implementation of innovative and immersive video for teaching and learning across the lifespan. Immersive video, delivered through eXtended Reality (XR) tools like 360 video, provides users with new ways to see real or created environments. Unfortunately, most of the existing research has highlighted…
