Project Abstract

Abstract
Virtual reality (VR) technology has emerged as a promising tool in enhancing student learning experiences in various educational settings, including science education. This research investigates the effectiveness of VR simulations in enhancing student learning in science education. The study aims to explore the impact of VR simulations on student engagement, motivation, understanding of scientific concepts, and overall academic performance. A mixed-methods approach will be employed to collect and analyze data from students who participate in science lessons using VR simulations.
