Virtual Reality (VR) has repeatedly proven its effectiveness in student learning. However, despite its benefits, the student equipped with a personal headset remains isolated from the real world while immersed in a virtual space and the classic student-teacher model of learning is difficult to transpose in such a situation. This study aims to bring the teacher back into the learning process when students use a VR headset. We describe the benefits of using a companion for educational purposes, taking as a test case the concept of gravity. We present an experimental setup designed to compare three different teaching contexts: with a physically present real teacher, using a live video of the teacher, and with a VR avatar of the teacher. We designed and evaluated three scenarios to teach the concept of gravity: an introduction to the concept of free fall, a parabolic trajectory workshop and a final exercise combining both approaches. Due to sanitary conditions, only pre-tests are reported. The results showed that the effectiveness of using the VR simulations for learning and the self-confidence level of the students increased as well. The interviews show that the students ranked the teaching modes in this order: VR companion mode, video communication and real teacher. |
