An empirical study of a simulated virtual reality was carried out in order to investigate the effectiveness of providing virtual simulation to enrich students’ learning experiences. The researchers found that virtual reality can possibly enhance students’ learning experiences by providing them with a heuristic and highly interactive simulated virtual environment. Being explorative and fun are essential parts of students’ learning experiences in virtual reality. This paper suggests that educators create stimulated virtual learning environments, for example game-like environments, to help students develop positive learning behaviors in the learning process.enStimulationSimulationsVirtual RealityInteractive Learning EnvironmentsThe use of virtual reality for creating unusual environmental stimulation to motivate students to explore creative ideasPeer Reviewed Journal Article10.1080/10494820.2012.745426
