What is VR education?
Through VR technology, teachers and students can expand or compress time and space according to actual needs, and can present plant growth experiments that take months to see the results in the real environment, microorganisms that are difficult to observe with the naked eye in the real world, or vast space in a virtual form. This can give people an intuitive and vivid display, rather than the cognition of abstract concepts. This is the biggest benefit of VR education-experience and immersion.

First, improve learning efficiency. According to statistics, the teaching efficiency of a single media teaching form such as words or pictures is about10%; The efficiency of multimedia teaching forms is about 30%; This efficiency will be higher after using VR teaching mode.

Second, promote educational equity. As long as you have a set of VR equipment, you can well eliminate the educational gap caused by regional differences, differences between the rich and the poor, time difference and other reasons.

Third, reduce the cost of education. Using VR in experimental teaching will replace expensive experiments with VR, which can reduce the cost of actual experiments at present. Simulating the shortage of resources during the experiment can make students operate repeatedly.

Fourth, avoid risks. Many experiments in chemistry, physics, medicine and other teaching involve corrosive, toxic and explosive liquids or solids. Using VR to experiment can greatly reduce the risk in the experiment.
