國小教師在自然科課程中融入虛擬實境教學之歷程探析

Abstract

This study explores the process and impact of integrating Virtual Reality (VR) technology into natural science teaching by elementary school teachers. Through the design and implementation of VR-based interactive experiments, the research aims to enhance students’ inquiry skills and support teachers’ development of critical pedagogical thinking. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study involved surveys, classroom observations, and focus group interviews with teachers who participated in professional development and implemented VR activities. Findings indicate that VR helps students comprehend abstract scientific concepts and encourages teachers to rethink instructional design. Challenges such as equipment access, curriculum alignment, and professional training were also identified. This study provides practical insights for educators integrating digital tools in curriculum and teacher development programs.
