Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis explores the integration of virtual reality technology in computer science education and its impact on student learning outcomes. Virtual reality (VR) technology has gained significant attention in recent years for its potential to enhance educational experiences by providing immersive and interactive learning environments. This study aims to investigate how the incorporation of VR technology in computer science education can improve student engagement, understanding, and overall learning outcomes. The research begins with an extensive review of existing literature on virtual reality technology in education, including its benefits and challenges. The study then presents a detailed methodology outlining the research design, data collection methods, and data analysis techniques employed to evaluate the effectiveness of VR technology in computer science education. Through a series of experiments and surveys conducted with students and educators, this research examines the impact of VR technology on student learning outcomes, including knowledge retention, problem-solving skills, and overall academic performance. The findings from these assessments are analyzed and discussed in Chapter Four, providing insights into the effectiveness of integrating VR technology in computer science education. The study concludes with a comprehensive summary of the research findings, implications for practice, and recommendations for future research in the field of virtual reality technology and computer science education. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on the use of VR technology in education and provides valuable insights into its potential to enhance student learning outcomes in the field of computer science. Keywords Virtual reality technology, computer science education, student learning outcomes, immersive learning environments, educational technology.
