2024, International Journal of Instruction

Advancements in technology have led to the widespread use of modern technologies in education, including the integration of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies. During the COVID-19 era, Music learning like other applied educational disciplines, has faced many technical and application problems, especially in finding alternative educational tools that fulfill the learning purpose and preserve the expected learning outcomes. This study came to explore the effectiveness of using Virtual Reality technology in music education and to figure out the students' acceptance and their intention to use the technology. For this purpose, an interactive virtual learning environment was developed to aid students in learning the "principle of music theory", a sample group of 20 students including students with Motor Disabilities from Luminus Technical University College (LTUC) participated in the study experiment. The results of the study show that the use of virtual reality technology is effective in learning music, and also there is an acceptable degree of intention to use the technology but at a high rate among students with motor disabilities. In addition, the analysis of the results highlights the essential factors that should be considered to improve the VR learning environment and the expected learning outcomes.
