“…In this study, they aimed to teach Mandarin Chinese in vocational training using CAVE room. In addition, the researchers also created a CAVE System [44,66] so that students could conduct experiments on the theory and concepts of relativity [67]. Also, there has been extensive work on HMD such as classroom management skills in teachers [68,69].…”

Nowadays technology development in real life will reflect on education inexorably. Today, the concept of Extended Reality (XR) technologies (XRs), such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), as very promising technological tools for education. The purpose of these technologies is to facilitate human life. In this context, educational technologies create new opportunities for students and teachers every day especially in education field. With various virtual environments (VE) and imaging systems, content that needs to be learned can be presented independently of school and classrooms in a low-cost and safe environment. As a result, teachers can create their own content with various applications, providing them with freedom of flexibility, and creativity. In this context, it is seen that XR has started to be used in various fields in education. When these fields and subjects are examined, it is observed that there is a concentration in the fields of education. The purpose of this narrative review is to describe the accelerators of XR (VR, AR, MR) technology in education settings. This literature review was conducted by conducting a systematic search of relevant articles and literature reviews through the university's online library, Google Scholar, Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, and the ACM Digital Library. In this paper, the authors demonstrate the main components of XR technology in the educational process. A comprehensive review of XR technology including education, and learning was provided. The authors identify limitations and conclude with future work of XR in educational uses.

“…The first observation of gravitational waves in 2015 has led to an increased public interest in astronomy and has brought a new educational focus on the field as well (Key & Hendry, 2016). This focus presents enormous opportunities and substantial responsibility for science educators because astronomy is a learning domain in which concepts are notoriously difficult to visualise (Azevedo & Mann, 2018;De Hosson et al, 2014;Eriksson et al, 2014;Kersting, 2020;Kersting et al, 2018). We have no direct experience of astronomical phenomena such as gravitational waves.…”

“…They realized then that the software had a positive impact on the construction of these students' concepts. Like Hosson, Kermen and Maisch (2011), who, using virtual reality (VR) on the relativistic effects on objects at high speeds, realized that students were able to develop an intuitive sense about them. Chu, Humer and Eckhard (2019) also observed a positive impact on the use of ICT.…”

Background: Given the importance of working on Modern Physics in the classroom and considering the great difficulty of understanding by students, it is important to investigate efficient ways to develop the theme. Objective: Identify if there was learning after using a didactic material built using animated gifs and specially after using computer simulations, and to investigate if there is a difference in learning between students who interacted and did not interact with the computer simulations. Design: The design is based on a quantitative analysis made by comparing the results of pre-tests and post-tests of the control and experimental groups. Setting and participants: The research was carried out with 82 students from the third year of high school from a public school. Of these students, 62 form the experimental group, while 20 make up the control group. Data collection and analysis: The activities were developed during the curricular classes of the Physics discipline, with the application of questionnaires immediately before and after the activities. The activities contemplated the four types of mediations (according the CNMT referential), and the control group did not use hypercultural mediation. Results: The outcome of the analysis shows a significant difference in the results of the control and experimental groups, and the experimental group showed a statistically superior growth. Conclusions: Using the four types of mediations, especially hypercultural, students' learning is enhanced for Special Relativity concepts and problem-solving.
