Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) technology has rapidly evolved over the years, with the development of a range of VR headsets and applications. This paper explores the potential for integrating VR into the educational system as a means of enhancing innovation in teaching and learning.

The paper also identifies challenges and opportunities associated with incorporating VR into education and suggests ways to address these issues. This paper suggests that VR has the potential to significantly impact the educational system.
