Students struggle to engage in education and they need to be motivated. I see that most of the students are really interested in technology and I would like to bring it into my class. There are so many ways in which virtual reality can help students, but, the main points are below: 1. Students learn better through experience. VR provides students an opportunity to learn through experience, in contrast to the traditional methods of reading and writing. 2. VR has the ability to inspire. Being able to see and experience extraordinary locations within the classroom is completely unique to VR and it is inspirational to students. 3. VR sparks the imagination and encourages creative thinking. The immersive experience that VR provides is unparalleled in teaching. Students are “transported” out of the classroom and their imagination is allowed to flourish. 4. VR in education promotes peer interaction. Throughout the VR experience, students are encouraged to interact with each other. Afterwards, they are eager to share their thoughts and discuss their experiences. 5. VR engages students. Many students get bored with classic teaching methods. The modern technology of VR gets students’ attention like nothing else. We find that students instantly want to try out the VR.
