Abstract

This research consists purposes were 1. to study the problems in managing teaching and learning using virtual reality technology 2. to develop a teaching model using Metaverse Spatial technology, with Wat Phra to Kindergarten School in Sisaket Province as a case study 3. to evaluate learning achievement and the teaching manual and 4. to study student satisfaction with the developed innovation. This study employed a quantitative research design. The research instruments consisted of a questionnaire on problems and needs related to the use of virtual reality technology, an instructional innovation congruence evaluation form, a learning achievement test and a satisfaction questionnaire.
