Research Method · All research methods
Evidence · no claims cited

Description

The review proposes an organizing framework for systematically analysing studies that compare VR-based and traditional teaching in higher education. It states: "The analysis focuses on a set of dimensions including the adopted research design, participants' characteristics, disciplinary field of application, VR technological features (i.e., immersivity, interactivity, operability, commercial availability, and presence of VR training), adopted teaching methodologies, assessed VR impact on learning outcomes and presence of studies involving students with disabilities or Specific Learning Disorders (SpLDs)." The framework structures the review's coding of 71 studies and offers a multidimensional perspective for educators, researchers and policymakers.
