Title
Simulation And Assessment Of Safety Procedure In An Immersive Virtual Reality (Ivr) Laboratory
Abstract
This paper presents the early research finding of our approach to utilize an immersive virtual reality (IVR) environment as an educational tool in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The proposed approach is demonstrated for the science laboratory. Realistic environment and interactions, immersive presence, automatic (in-app) data collection, and the possibility of following different educational theories such as experiential learning and use of the actual course content are among features that make this approach novel and help address existing shortcomings in STEM education, especially during COVID-19 restrictions. An initial usability study and VR presence survey were completed. Finding suggests that the majority of users found the environment realistic, memorable, and easy to use and learn. A full study is underway to compare the same application on Desktop VR (DVR) and text-based/2D safety training.
