Abstract

The use of virtual reality (VR) in the educational sector has increased considerably in the last decade, especially for its direct application in the development of virtual laboratories (VL) that, since the appearance of COVID-19, are being more demanded by universities. Therefore, knowing the opinion of students and professors about VR is essential for VR-based applications to be designed in an appropriate way and to be efficient at an educational level. In this sense, the results of this study, which analyzes the opinion of 420 engineering students and 44 engineering professors, can help future professors or software programmers in general to design VR-based educational resources in an appropriate way and in particular to better design their VLs.
