บทคัดย่อ

         VR technology was a new and innovative approach to constructing virtual reality spaces that had become a crucial tool in the field of education. It created fresh and captivating learning environments for students, offering increased interactivity and immersion, which stimulated the imagination and promoted improved learning outcomes. The continuous development of VR technology brought forth new opportunities and challenges to the art education industry. The objectives of this research were to: 1) compare the learning achievement of Secondary 5 (Grade 11) students before and after the learning management using the traditinal approach, 2) compare the learning achievement of students before and after the learning management using the Virtual Reality (VR) technology, and 3) compare the academic performance of students studying through the traditional approach and those studying through the VR technology. The research sample consisted of two classes 2 classes of 30 students in each class of Secondary 5 (Grade 11) students at the second middle school of Sichuan Province, China, in the 2022 academic year, selected by cluster random sampling. The research instruments consisted of: 1) the learning management plans based on the traditional approach, 2) the learning management plans based on VR technology, and 3) a learning achievement test. Mean, standard deviations, and t-test were used for data analysis. The research results showed that: 1) the learning achievement of students after learning management based on the traditional approach was higher than before at the statistical significance level of .05., 2) the learning achievement of students after learning management based on the VR technology was higher than the before at the statistical significance level of .05., and 3) the learning achievement of students studying through the VR technology was higher than those studying through the traditional approach at the statistical significance level of .05.
