Nowadays, everyone is talking about how the number one skill of the future is developing good social skills. The way we communicate with each other is what makes us prompt to solving problems and getting to know our surroundings. Therefore, social skills should also be taught, and there is no better tool for learning social skills than VR. Virtual reality enables the creation of any surrounding. So, children can learn how to react to different social situations and surroundings, including meeting digital avatars from all cultures around the world or being put in a scenario which deals with issues like racism or bullying. Children should learn how to respect diversity and how to interact in a diverse group. For this matter, VR can be a great tool to teach children how to experience empathy and to see the world through another person’s struggle.
Overall, using VR in education can only lead to creating a more innovative technological solution, because only when we are intensively using something we can truly test it and improve it. Therefore, VR can only support teachers’ effort in creating engaging and better-educated students.
