Virtual Reality
Virtual reality (VR) is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment and education has just adopted virtual reality for teaching and learning situations. It is able to present complex data in an accessible way to students which is bot fun and easy to learn. Plus these students can interact with the objects in that environment in order to discover more about them. For example when teaching new words to students showing that word's visual is much more rememberable than just saying and repeating it. But showing an Elephant to a kid that is learning about animals will make that kid never forget what Elephant means because it is much more enjoyable, intriguing and fun. It creates a unique experience for the kids. That's because children today are familiar with all forms of technology and use these at school as well as at home. They have grown up with technology from a very early age and unlike adults, do not have any fear or hesitation in using it. Plus we live in a technological society. So it makes sense to implement virtual reality as one of several forms of technology in order to educate tomorrow‘s technological elite. Education has moved on from books, pencils and pens to the use of interactive technologies to help impart knowledge and understanding.
