Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project examines the potential of utilizing virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance student engagement and learning in high school science classes. The integration of VR technology in educational settings has gained significant attention in recent years due to its ability to create immersive and interactive learning experiences. This study aims to investigate the impact of VR technology on student engagement, motivation, and academic performance in science education. The research will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. The study will involve high school students from diverse backgrounds to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the effects of VR technology on student learning outcomes. Data will be collected through surveys, interviews, observations, and academic performance assessments. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, including the background of the study, problem statement, research objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definition of key terms. Chapter Two presents a thorough literature review covering ten key topics related to VR technology in education and its impact on student engagement and learning. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, including the research design, participant selection, data collection procedures, data analysis methods, ethical considerations, and limitations of the study. The methodology section will provide a detailed framework for conducting the research and ensuring the validity and reliability of the findings. In Chapter Four, the discussion of findings will present the results of the study, including the impact of VR technology on student engagement, motivation, and academic performance in high school science classes. The chapter will analyze the data collected and provide insights into the effectiveness of VR technology as a learning tool in science education. Chapter Five concludes the research project by summarizing the key findings, implications for practice, recommendations for future research, and the overall significance of utilizing VR technology to enhance student engagement and learning in high school science classes. The conclusion will highlight the potential of VR technology to revolutionize science education and improve student outcomes. Overall, this research project aims to contribute to the growing body of literature on the use of VR technology in education and provide valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in enhancing student engagement and learning in high school science classes.
