Application of virtual reality and augmented reality technologies to boost the technical capabilities for a constructive and effective learning in education for a performing virtual eco-system: a design thinking approach

This research article introspects into the use of the technical capabilities of virtual reality and augmented reality to boost constructive learning in the domain of effective education. It examines a model approach for instructional and developmental design for creating a virtual educational ecosystem. It creates a team for participation, employing VR/AR technology to combat the hurdles in ease of learning, and assess its feasibility of performance. The adoption of the design thinking model handles and navigates, through its macro strategy, identifying subject topics for presentation. Similarly, the micro strategy ensures the effective and efficient presentation of the academic content, which is designed and intended for learning. The model is developed for the implementation of outcomes, along with developing the components of the virtual ecosystem of optimal education inputs, with a specialized evaluation of individual learners and small groups. The research article has employed exploratory study with critical literature review in a mixed method approach. It engaged the method for a deeper understanding of the constructivism learning, applied to the virtual reality technologies for better knowledge.
