Abstract

The current chapter focuses on the cognitive process relating to immersive technology in learning. By reviewing the cognitive theories in human architecture, the author argues that learners' learning can be significantly improved with technologies that promote deep processing through sensory immersive experience like virtual reality. Discussion of the features of immersive technologies is made in relation to human cognitive processing. Suggestions for future research and application of immersive technology in education are included to help educators and professionals to better integrate immersive technology in teaching and training.
