description Integrating Virtual Reality (VR) into educational environments represents a significant advancement in teaching and learning. Traditional text-based instruction can diminish student engagement, while VR can fully immerse students, enhancing motivation, understanding, and participation. This study explores the impact of VR in education, highlighting its ability to engage students and improve information retention. However, challenges such as accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and safety need to be addressed.
