Abstract

Addressing the persistent issue of inadequate critical thinking skills among students, this study examines the potential of Virtual Reality (VR) to transform educational practices. Traditional teaching methods often prioritize rote memorization, limiting opportunities for higher-order cognitive processes such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. This narrative review synthesizes findings from the past five years, focusing on VR’s ability to enhance thinking skills. Employing a systematic literature search via Scopus, 24 reviewed studies were analyzed, highlighting VR’s immersive and interactive capabilities in fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and engagement. Results indicate that VR surpasses traditional methods by offering experiential learning scenarios, promoting collaboration, and addressing diverse educational needs. Applications in STEM and professional education demonstrate improved cognitive outcomes, including spatial reasoning, decision-making, and retention of abstract concepts. However, challenges such as high costs, infrastructural constraints, and teacher training gaps hinder widespread adoption. Ethical considerations around data privacy and inclusivity further underscore the need for strategic implementation. This study concludes that VR holds transformative potential in education, provided challenges are addressed through targeted investments, interdisciplinary innovations, and inclusive practices. Future research should emphasize long-term studies and integrate emerging technologies like AI and AR to maximize VR’s impact on cognitive skill development.

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education, exemplified by tools like ChatGPT, represents a transformative shift in teaching and learning methodologies. This study explores ChatGPT’s role in advancing personalized learning, empowering educators, and enhancing accessibility within educational ecosystems. Using a systematic literature review supported by bibliometric analysis, the paper identifies key trends and insights into AI-driven educational technologies. Findings demonstrate ChatGPT's capacity to personalize instruction by generating adaptive content, delivering real-time feedback, and facilitating curriculum development. It also alleviates educators' workloads through automated grading, lesson planning, and administrative support. However, challenges such as ethical concerns regarding data privacy, inherent AI biases, and potential over-reliance on automation hinder its widespread adoption. The study emphasizes the necessity of ethical guidelines, transparency, and balanced AI integration to mitigate these risks. In conclusion, ChatGPT holds substantial potential for improving educational outcomes by fostering inclusive, adaptive, and efficient learning environments. Future efforts should focus on refining AI technologies to reduce biases, uphold data privacy, and equip educators with the skills needed to effectively integrate AI into pedagogical practices. Responsible and ethical implementation will be key to unlocking ChatGPT's full potential in education.
