Research on the Integration of Virtual Reality Technology and Teaching Scene Innovation in Civic and Political Education Management in Colleges and Universities

Abstract The generation and development of virtual reality technology provides new and powerful tools for the management of ideological education in colleges and universities. This paper focuses on exploring the utility of using virtual reality technology in college civic education. By selecting and deploying appropriate virtual reality display devices and development environments, we provide sufficient hardware and software support for the application of virtual reality technology to the ideology and politics classroom in colleges and universities. The browser/server 3-tier architecture model is introduced to develop this paper’s interactive teaching system based on virtual reality technology and integrate it with Civics classroom teaching. Students in the Civics classroom of University A are selected as the research subjects, and the eye movement index experiment is designed, which shows that the subjects’ attention time ratio and first-time attention time when using VR panorama learning are significantly improved compared with that of using static picture learning. The Civics classroom can easily accept this paper’s VR interactive teaching system, as demonstrated by the questionnaire results of the experimental group in two courses in teaching practice. At the same time, the mean values of the experimental group’s mind-flow experience and quiz scores using this paper’s system were 19.76% and 16.30% higher than those of the control group, and the degree of learning engagement was improved by as much as 78.556%, which effectively demonstrates the value and role of this paper’s VR interactive teaching system applied in the Civics classroom.
