Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) technologies have the potential to improve online education for students. This paper reports on a course on the topic of virtual reality using VR technologies and Mozilla Hubs. Findings from student questionnaire responses suggest that students appreciated the unique educational experience of learning about VR in VR and felt more present in VR when compared to other online learning experiences. However, it was noted that using a VR headset made it difficult to take notes and became uncomfortable for some students after long periods of time.
