The adoption of virtual reality (VR) technology in English courses at vocational colleges has gained attention for its potential to enhance learning outcomes. Understanding the factors that influence behavioral intention to use VR technology is crucial for successful implementation. Perceived benefit, which reflects the advantages users expect from VR, and perceived sacrifice, encompassing the effort or costs associated with its use, play critical roles in shaping users' intentions. This study explores the relationships between perceived benefit, perceived sacrifice, and behavioral intention to use VR in English courses, providing insights into how these factors impact the acceptance of innovative educational tools. This study use quantitative research which involve 231 English teachers in China’s Vocational Colleges in Jinlin Province. SMART-PLS is used to analyze the data in order to show the path coefficient results for the variables. Results revealed that perceived benefit had a small negative but statistically insignificant correlation with behavioral intention. Similarly, perceived sacrifice exhibited a slight positive yet insignificant relationship with behavioral intention. Both hypotheses were rejected, indicating no significant influence of perceived benefit or perceived sacrifice on behavioral intention to implement VR technology. These findings highlight the need to explore additional factors influencing VR adoption in educational contexts.
