Development of Construction Engineering Teaching Course by using VR-AR: A Case Study of Polytechnic in Indonesia

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic impacted on increasing use of Android smartphones in teaching and learning. This study aims to build markerless VR-AR (Virtual Reality-Augmented Reality) as Android-based teaching materials for construction engineering students in Polytechnic. VR-AR based teaching materials that have been established can reduce the risk of spreading Covid-19 without reducing learning quality. This research used the V-model method, which is divided into two parts, particularly development and testing activities. Testing is performed by developers and examiners using ISO 25010. The test results of VR-AR based teaching materials that have been established show that the teaching materials were very feasible in terms of functional suitability, compatibility, and usability. All functions of the VR-AR application operate smoothly and work successfully on various Android operating systems with different screen resolutions. Moreover, users were satisfied with the developed VR-AR based teaching materials. They felt comfortable, fun, and excited when using the AR application.

Construction and Application of a Complex Network-Based Case Knowledge Base in an Assisted Instruction System

“…In the business administration field, building such a system not only provides a rich case resource library, but also further taps into potential knowledge and insights using complex network technology to analyze the correlation between cases [11][12][13][14]. This system not only enables students to learn and understand the core concepts and methods of business administration more systematically, but also enables teachers to prepare courses and guide students more efficiently [15][16][17][18].…”
