Virtual reality, STEM education, VR, Interactive SimulationsAbstract
Maroon is a virtual laboratory designed for learning experiences with virtual reality setups. It provides access to various simulations and experiments to learn and understand better physics. In a first study, the experience is evaluated with 14 prospective physics teachers to identify and discuss the potential of the setup for the classroom. In this study, we found that the experience was described as highly engaging and promising as it makes the content more interesting for learners. However, also the need to provide specific VR learning in educational institutions, as well as proving pedagogical scenarios to support collaborative learning were identified.
