Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis investigates the utilization of virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance agricultural science education in secondary schools. The integration of VR technology in educational settings has shown promising results in engaging students and improving learning outcomes. The study aims to explore the potential benefits of incorporating VR technology specifically in the context of agricultural science education at the secondary school level. The research begins with an introduction that highlights the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of key terms. This sets the stage for a comprehensive literature review in Chapter Two, which examines ten key studies related to VR technology in education, agricultural science education, and the intersection of both fields. Chapter Three focuses on the research methodology, detailing the research design, participants, data collection methods, data analysis techniques, ethical considerations, and limitations of the study. The methodology is crucial in providing a robust framework for investigating the impact of VR technology on agricultural science education in secondary schools. In Chapter Four, the discussion of findings delves into the empirical results obtained from implementing VR technology in agricultural science classrooms. The chapter presents an in-depth analysis of how VR technology enhances student engagement, knowledge retention, practical skills development, and overall learning experiences in agricultural science education. Finally, Chapter Five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications for practice and future research, and providing recommendations for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders interested in adopting VR technology to enhance agricultural science education in secondary schools. The study contributes to the growing body of literature on educational technology and highlights the potential of VR technology as a valuable tool for transforming agricultural science education in the digital age. Keywords virtual reality technology, agricultural science education, secondary schools, student engagement, learning outcomes.
