In the field of education, virtual reality (VR) offers learners an immersive and interactive learning experience, allowing them to comprehend challenging concepts and ideas more efficiently and effectively. VR technology has enabled educators to develop a wide range of learning experiences, from virtual field trips to complex simulations, that may be utilized to engage students and help them learn. Learning theories and approaches are essential for understanding how students learn and how to design effective learning experiences. This study examines the most recent published findings in educational theories and approaches connected to the use of VR systems for educational and tutoring purposes. Seventeen research studies that meet the search criteria have been found in the database, and each of them focuses on at least one learning theory or learning approach related to educational systems using VR. These studies yielded five educational approaches, one methodology, five learning theories and one theoretical framework, which are presented in the context of virtual reality in education. These include constructivism learning, experiential learning, gamification of learning, John Dewey’s theory of learning by doing, flow theory, Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, design thinking, learning through problem solving, scientific discovery learning, social constructivism, cognitive load theory and the Technology Pedagogical Content Knowledge Framework (TPACK). A major finding of this study is that constructivism learning is the most often utilized learning theory/method, Experiential Learning is most appropriate for VR and the gamification of learning has the greatest future potential.

Aims: To conduct a systematic examination and bibliometric analysis of Scopus-indexed literature focusing on emerging trends in programming languages research within Southeast Asia. Study Design: This study employs a mixed method approach, incorporating both qualitative and bibliometric analysis. Place and Duration of Study: Publication data for review was obtained from the Scopus database, covering the period from 2018 to 2023, with a specific focus on the progress in programming language and semantics research within ASEAN countries. Methodology: We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) protocol to collect publication data. Bibliometric data was visualized through Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. Results: From 2018 to 2023, the research production involving programming languages and semantics across ASEAN countries has been strong, yielding a total of 233 documents from 160 unique sources. However, the annual growth rate was at -10.87%. There was a total of 882 authors with only 10 sole authors in the field. 46.78% of the documents had international co-authorship with an average of 4.03 authors per document. The literature spanned across 764 unique author keywords and 7424 citations with an average of 11.12 citations per document. Conclusion: Southeast Asia has a rich and collaborative research space in the field of Programming Languages but it faces several barriers such as the absence of a unified research agenda, the lack of adequate funding, and the relatively weak industrial base.

“…Additionally, by letting them explore the virtual world at their own speed and in the manner of their choice, it may provide students with a personalised learning experience. By employing virtual reality technology to provide tailored feedback, students can enhance their understanding of the subject matter [2].The potential of virtual reality (VR) to replicate real-world situations is one of its most amazing educational aspects. This implies that students can engage in practical activities that in the real world could be prohibitively expensive or logistically difficult.…”

The application of virtual reality (VR) in learning is a rapidly changing technology that can greatly impact on the way many aspects of education is being done. This report examines the advantages, disadvantages, and educational purposes of virtual reality as a medium in its entirety. It makes an inquiry into how VR, during which students become the part of interactive, three-dimensional space that enables them to study complicated things and obtain useful skills definitely without any risk, does or might enhance their academic life. The study likewise deals with the problems of VR in the classroom: the high cost, limited accessibility, aiming at helping teachers. Virtual reality technology is taking a giant stride forward with the extraordinary blends in software and hardware that could be the magical solution to the problems mentioned. Keywords- Virtual Reality(VR),Immersive Technology, Virtual Reality Hardware, Virtual Reality Application, Medical Virtual Reality.
