“…It was acknowledged that virtual simulation technology was a convenient and effective tool. The virtual simulation experiment was designed to meet the objectives of experimental teaching and replicate real-world experimental environments ( 4 , 5 ). Students engaged in immersive and realistic virtual experiments through human-computer interaction, and acquired necessary skills for independent practice when learners responded in what they perceived as realistic ( 6 , 7 ).…”

BackgroundAs a convenient teaching tool, virtual simulation experiment technology had been widely utilized in the field of medical education. However, virtual learning could not fully replace the benefits of in-person instruction. Therefore, finding ways to integrate both methods was crucial for achieving optimal educational outcomes. The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the self-built virtual simulation and design experiment combining teaching mode and the traditional experimental teaching mode in the clinical microbiology examination experiment teaching.MethodsThis study was conducted at Shandong First Medical University in China. The experimental group consisted of 100 third-year students from the grade 2020 majoring in medical examination technology, who underwent an innovative teaching model combining virtual and real experiments. The control group comprised of 100 third-year students from the grade 2019 in the same major, who received traditional experimental teaching model. In this study, we referred to grade 2020 as cohort 2020 and grade 2019 cohort 2019. The performance of both groups was assessed via experimental and theoretical testing. Meanwhile, survey questionnaires were administered to evaluate the efficacy of the innovative experimental teaching model and students’ level of satisfaction with it. Cohort 2020 conducted a survey for modules 1 to 4, while cohort 2019 only conducted a survey for module 4, as detailed in the Appendix.ResultsThe majority of students in the experimental group expressed satisfaction with the teaching model that combined virtual and real experiments, as evidenced by their superior performance on both experimental operational skills (87.54 ± 8.93 vs. 82.39 ± 10.55) and theoretical knowledge tests (83.65 ± 9.02 vs. 80.18 ± 8.24) compared to those in the control group.ConclusionThe combination of virtual simulation experiment and design experiment in the microbiological examination of clinical specimens represented an effective pedagogical approach. The instructional approach had the potential to incite a passion for learning, enhance proficiency in standardized experimental techniques, foster the ability to integrate theory with practice, and cultivate clinical reasoning skills.

“…Therefore, this study presented physical activity with new experiences, namely through virtual reality. Virtual reality-based means a physical activity carried out in cyberspace [38,39]. According to Asadzadeh, Samad-Soltani, Salahzadeh & Rezaei-Hachesu [40], using virtual reality technology cause athletes apparently carried out physical activity like actual situations.…”

Purpose. The use of virtual reality technology in the field of sports is increasing, but there is a lack of evidence reporting the effects of virtual reality to change the level of mental health and cognitive function in Karate athletes through mixed research methods. This study to determine how virtual reality-based physical activity affected athletes' levels of mental health and cognitive function. Material and methods. This study involved male Karate athletes from Cendikia Leadership School in Indonesia (n=30). The athletes were allocated to the experimental group (n=15) and control group (n=15). Results. First finding of the quantitative study showed that before the experiment there was no difference in the scores of mental health and cognitive function in the two groups. The second finding showed that there was a difference after the experiment. In qualitative study, athletes revealed their perception that the advantages of virtual reality-based physical activity were fun, easy to implement, and can be carried out without the supervision of a coach. Moreover, they also mentioned the weakness of this tool, namely not all athletes have virtual reality tools, the impact to their eye health, exercise must be carried out in a safe place. Conclusions. Thus, this study concluded that physical activity based on virtual reality was proven to be effective in changing of mental health and cognitive function of Karate athletes.

“…A gap exists in the literature regarding the lack of use of VR in tourism applications for improving customers' perceptions of authenticity and experience; moreover, only limited studies have proposed corresponding improvement measures (Liu et al ., 2022). Scholars have considered that VR immersion and authenticity perceptions are more split (Chung et al ., 2015; Wen et al ., 2018) and that the correlations between the factors may be slightly weak.…”

Purpose In order to encourage customers to try experience virtual tourism, researchers and practitioners pay more attention on how to improve customers' perception of authenticity.Design/methodology/approach Using the theory of cross-sensory compensation, through 4 experiments, this study examines the impact of social interaction and cross-sensory strategies on the relationship between virtual reality (VR) and improving customers' perception of authenticity and customer experience.Findings Through experimental research, this paper finds that (1) VR immersion has a significant positive impact on perception of authenticity, which in turn acts on customers' virtual tourism experience. (2) In addition, social interaction strengthens the relationship between VR immersion and customers' perception of authenticity. (3) The cross-sensory compensation has a positive effect on VR immersion to enhance customers' perception of authenticity.Originality/value The research conclusion provides a direction for further discussion on how to improve customers' perception of authenticity and provides theoretical guidance and reference for the virtual tourism industry.
