“…The last activity was using VR 360 0 media in the form of Explaining the Evidence of the Ecotourism and Rural Sustainable. Students are actively and collaboratively [30,31] able to show actual evidence based on facts in the field regarding ecotourism and rural sustainable materials. The evidence that shows the influence of Ecotourism on Rural Sustainable is contained in the detailed material on Economic Benefits and Empowerment of Vulnerable Groups.…”

Tourism has an essential role in economic development through improving people’s welfare. However, tourism activities are vulnerable to global issues, one of which is the COVID-19 pandemic. Social restrictions on economic activity have implications for the sustainability of tourism. One effective strategy to maintain tourism sustainability in regional development can be achieved through education channels by packaging the concept of tourism into virtual reality (VR) 3600-assisted learning materials. This study aimed to develop VR 360∘ media in supporting geography learning on sustainable ecotourism. This was development research using the PLOMP model, which consisted of 3 stages: (1) preliminary research; (2) prototype design and development; and (3) evaluation. The results showed that the VR 3600 media helped the student’s learning process actively and independently through interaction with 3600 panoramic projections and multimedia. Immersive learning experiences involving complex thinking and contextual reflection were formed through the VR 360∘-assisted learning activities with learning outcomes of a) information literacy, b) exploration, and c) reflection on the content of sustainable ecotourism. Learning activities engaged through the virtual environment are expected to foster a good understanding in the student environment of the importance of managing and developing ecotourism in supporting rural sustainability. Keywords: mobile immersive, geography, virtual reality 360∘, ecotourism, rural sustainability

“…Researchers have debated the use of immersive virtual reality in engineering education (Stojšić et al, 2017). Immersive experiences offer the potential to give students more control over their learning activities and increase engagement (Ruiz-Cantisani et al, 2020). Such control is essential since one of the disadvantages of technology-assisted learning is a lack of student ownership in the learning process.…”

In education, particularly vocational higher education, student involvement is a challenge. Teachers can use virtual reality to bring real-life events into the classroom, encouraging active learning and student participation. Virtual Reality (VR) can be employed in various ways using a simple, easy and helpful application that can be difficult to execute pedagogically Three research methods were conducted in a classroom setting, with total simulation using VR oculus rift technology, and data analysed using desktop computer theme analysis. Students from engineering departments took part in the research, using VR to boost student learning engagement. According to the statistics, VR appears reasonably simple to use, and students feel it enhances their comprehension and engagement. According to this preliminary research, VR environments provide an intense presence, enhancing student engagement and motivation. This conclusion supports the findings of prior investigations.
