    This document discusses how virtual reality can advance education by increasing student engagement, providing hands-on experiences, and simulating real-world environments. It notes that countries like China, the U.S., U.A.E., France, the U.K., and Australia are investing in VR education. VR is being used in China to teach science subjects and has led to improved theoretical and practical skills, increased willingness to learn, better knowledge retention, and higher test scores. Potential downsides include the need for faculty training, limited teacher-created content, visual issues for young children, and the expense of the technology.
