In the Context of Online Communication and Education, the Provision of Assistance to Students Who have Disabilities

Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) refers to a variety of technological advancements that make it possible for people to interact and interact with three-dimensional "worlds" or "environments" that have been generated by a computer. The incorporation of molecular structure models or computer-generated reconstructions of metropolitan streets, buildings, and landscapes are two examples of potential upgrades that may be made to these digital settings. At the beginning of the 1990s, discussions began to take place regarding the potential incorporation of virtual reality (VR) into educational settings. According to Bricken (1991), during that time period, there was a widespread belief in the production of distinctive and influential learning environments that were unmatched by any other environments. Bricken's assertion is supported by others. After then, an increasing number of academics who specialize in virtual reality (VR) have been working to study the potential benefits of this technology in a variety of educational settings, including both fundamental and advanced modes of learning. This article provides a concise discussion on the potential advantages that could be gained by using virtual reality (VR) technology into educational environments. Individuals are able to improve their interpersonal communication skills in both safe and regulated contexts by participating in extremely realistic simulated scenarios through the use of virtual reality (VR), which allows them to participate in these scenarios. The purpose of this article is to present a detailed analysis of four experiments that were conducted in the field of special needs education by the Virtual Reality Applications Research Team and their related colleagues. The essay focuses specifically on the latter application. Beginning in 1991, the investigations were carried out into the matter. The construction and evaluation of applications that are designed expressly for usage in virtual environments is the primary concentrate of this area of research. The primary purpose is to enhance the level of independence that individuals who struggle with learning and communication need in their day-to-day lives.
