Research on Design and Application of Virtual Reality Learning Environment from Perspective of Deep Learning

Zhenyang SU, Shan WANG, Dezhi WANG, Shasha WANG

Abstract


How to design learning environments to promote deep learning? Current studies mostly focus on real classroom environment or online learning environment, and there are few related studies on virtual reality learning environment. This paper tries to focus on the design and application of virtual reality technology learning environment from the perspective of deep learning, discussing the necessity, feasibility, design strategies and application. In the author’s opinion, this research can promote the development and improvement of deep learning theory and learning environment design theory, and the research results can be widely used in STEAM education, popular science education, curriculum experimental teaching, vocational skills training, informal venue learning and other education or teaching fields.
