Project Overview

The project topic, "Integration of Virtual Reality in Technical Education: A Case Study on Enhancing Practical Skills Training," focuses on the application of virtual reality (VR) technology in the field of technical education to improve practical skills training. Virtual reality is a computer-generated environment that simulates a real-world experience, allowing users to interact with digital environments in a realistic and immersive way. In the context of technical education, VR has the potential to revolutionize the way students learn and practice technical skills by providing hands-on training in a virtual environment. The integration of virtual reality technology in technical education offers numerous benefits, including enhanced engagement, improved retention of information, and the opportunity to practice skills in a safe and controlled environment. By simulating real-world scenarios, students can develop their practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and decision-making skills in a risk-free setting. Additionally, VR technology can provide access to training materials and resources that may be otherwise unavailable due to logistical constraints. This research project aims to investigate the effectiveness of integrating virtual reality in technical education specifically for enhancing practical skills training. The case study approach will involve implementing VR technology in a technical education setting and evaluating its impact on student learning outcomes, engagement levels, and skill development. By examining the benefits and challenges of using VR in technical education, this study seeks to provide valuable insights into the potential of virtual reality as a tool for enhancing practical skills training. Overall, the integration of virtual reality in technical education has the potential to revolutionize the way technical skills are taught and learned. Through this research project, we aim to explore the impact of VR technology on practical skills training and contribute to the advancement of innovative teaching methods in technical education.
