Integration of Virtual Reality in K-12 Education

Although VR has been studied in higher education and corporate training, its impact on younger learners, particularly when integrated into the core curriculum, remains less understood. This research seeks to address that gap by examining the use of VR in K-12 education, focusing on its potential to improve student communication, skill development, and global educational collaboration. Additionally, it explores how VR affects younger students differently compared to traditional teaching methods and finds different ways to optimize the learning process during environment development. The study also aims to identify a more effective approach to digital online learning through VR while accurately assessing students’ educational levels.
