New Perspectives on Virtual and Augmented Reality discusses the possibilities of using virtual and augmented reality in the role of innovative pedagogy, where there is an urgent need to find ways to teach and support learning in a transformed learning environment. Technology creates opportunities to learn differently and presents challenges for education. Virtual Reality solutions can be exciting, create interest in learning, make learning more accessible, and make learning faster.
This book analyzes the capabilities of Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality by providing ideas on how to make learning more effective, how existing VR/AR solutions can be used as learning tools, and how a learning process can be structured. The VR solutions can be used successfully for educational purposes as their use can contribute to the construction of knowledge and the development of metacognitive processes. They also contribute to inclusive education by providing access to knowledge that would not otherwise be available.
This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the field of educational technology.
Linda Daniela is professor, Chair of the Council for PhD Defense in Pedagogy, Head of the Scientific Institute of Pedagogy at the University of Latvia in Riga, Latvia.
