The move freely according natural conditions. Users from one place another, approach particular objects, run menus using programs installed Oculus. feasibility reviewed perception teachers students after it. snowball effect interview model measured perceptions students. teacher’s experience observed four aspects experience: conformity subject matter, feasible models, competencies, adequacy application. student five aspects: immersion, interest, comfort tool, intention share, practicality existing features. gives basis a broader analyzing use both outside classroom. results review observation explain that apply real situations. challenge integrating this objectives subjects. However, result limited number participants cannot applied generalize comprehensively. Studies actual conditions need carried out reveal potential VR.
