Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis explores the implementation of virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance learning in the field of computer education. The rapid advancements in technology have brought about significant changes in the way education is delivered and received. Virtual reality, a cutting-edge technology that offers immersive and interactive experiences, has the potential to revolutionize the educational landscape, particularly in the realm of computer education. This research investigates the integration of VR technology into computer education settings to improve learning outcomes and engagement among students. The study begins with a comprehensive review of the literature on virtual reality technology and its applications in education. Various studies and projects that have successfully utilized VR for educational purposes are examined to understand the benefits and challenges associated with its implementation. The literature review also delves into the theoretical frameworks and pedagogical approaches that underpin the use of VR in education. Moving on to the research methodology, this thesis outlines the approach taken to investigate the impact of VR technology on learning outcomes in computer education. The research design incorporates both quantitative and qualitative methods to gather data on student engagement, knowledge retention, and overall learning experience when using VR technology in educational settings. Data collection techniques include surveys, interviews, observations, and analysis of academic performance metrics. The findings of the study reveal the positive effects of implementing VR technology for enhanced learning in computer education. Students who engaged with VR-based learning experiences demonstrated higher levels of motivation, interest, and understanding of complex computer science concepts. The immersive nature of VR environments facilitated experiential learning and enabled students to interact with information in a more meaningful and memorable way. In the discussion of findings, the implications of the research results are analyzed in relation to existing educational practices and future trends in technology-enhanced learning. The potential challenges and limitations of incorporating VR technology into computer education are also examined, along with recommendations for overcoming these obstacles and maximizing the benefits of immersive learning experiences. In conclusion, this thesis highlights the significance of leveraging virtual reality technology to transform traditional approaches to computer education. By providing students with interactive and engaging learning opportunities through VR simulations and experiences, educators can enhance the effectiveness of teaching and promote deeper understanding of complex topics in computer science. The research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on the integration of VR technology in education and offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and technology developers seeking to improve learning outcomes in the digital age.
