Simulation or Fake: Will Extended Reality Provide a more Vivid Learning Experience? (72690)
Session: On Demand
Room: Virtual Poster Presentation
Presentation Type:Virtual Poster Presentation
Extended reality (XR) is considered a potential new technology capable of creating a more immersive, realistic learning experience. EDUCAUSE Horizon Report: Teaching and Learning Edition, published by the US professional organisation, mentioned extended reality twice as one of six technologies and practices that will influence the future development of higher education from 2020 to 2022. However, the quality of current systems for the application of XR in education varies; the effectiveness of the application is still somewhat controversial and needs in-depth discussion due to the limitations of the application equipment and other reasons. This research aims to explore the effectiveness of extending reality in education, in particular, whether extended reality can provide a more realistic and immersive learning experience. This study adopts a combination of literature review and case study analysis. Through a comprehensive survey of relevant literature, it analyses the definition, characteristics and application scenarios of extended reality technology and combines actual cases of extended reality in training to explore the effects and applications of extended reality in education. The study indicates that extended reality can provide a more realistic and immersive learning experience, especially when the system is highly interactive or with a virtual learning environment, which can enhance the sense of realistic and experiential learning.
