Usefulness of virtual reality-based teaching to course teaching

Abstract

With the vigorous development of the railway transportation industry and the advancement of science and technology, technology of railway vehicles is also constantly updated. Due to the constraints of education costs, venues, time and other factors, students cannot get good training, which requires teachers to use advanced technology to meet teaching needs. Virtual Reality (VR) technology is an effective method to solve the problems of insufficient laboratory facilities, slow equipment updates, and safety in training. By introducing the VR training system of railway freight car brake maintenance and using the teaching method of combining virtual and reality, the comparison shows that students have improved their training skills, mastery of theoretical knowledge, and learning interest, which verifies the effectiveness. of virtual reality technology on teaching.
