Abstract: Virtual reality education is a computer interface with specific characteristics transforming an immersive and interactive experience in to an education evolution. The purpose of this paper is to look into different approaches to study on emergence of the application of virtual reality in teaching and learning in classroom. Academic literatures indicate artificial intelligence is an evolution of the technology that taking the education to new ways. The pilot questionnaire was administered to a group of 45 subjects. A group was primed to complete the questionnaire before engagement of virtual reality and completed the questionnaire for post-test after experienced the virtual reality. Analysis from empirical evidence proves that virtual reality presents an opportunity of learning with a real situation, but artificially created enabling the visualization and the interaction sense with the study. This paper contributes to the theory on the implications of emerging technologies on the way students learn and how institutions teach and evolve. The paper draws intention to the implication of better appropriation of the concepts and a bigger facility in the activities performance specifically in modern education.
