Abstract

Recently, in the field of education, various attempts have been made to apply virtual reality technology to an educational field and use it as an educational medium. Accordingly, in the science subject area, it is necessary to simulate science experiments that can make various and active experiments out of various limitations such as space and situation by using virtual reality environment construction technology. In this study, after selecting a physics course from a science subject, an experimental simulation using a parabolic motion formula, one of physical phenomena, is implemented in a virtual space, and then used in actual physics education based on the learning standards of the STEAM theory. Prove this is possible. Through this, it was confirmed that a specific educational model using virtual reality space can be designed, and it shows that education can be conducted with more effective educational methods in various subjects of education through the combination of traditional educational model and modern technology. Regarding the results of the research, it suggests the possibility of future research plans and practical use in the educational field.

최근 교육 분야에서는 가상현실 기술을 교육현장에 접목하여 교육 매체로 사용을 하고자 하는 시도들이 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 이에 과학교과 방면에서도 가상현실 환경 구축 기술을 이용하여 공간 및 상황 등의 여러 제한에서 벗어나 보다 다양하고 활동적인 실험을 할 수 있는 과학 실험 시뮬레이션을 필요로 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 과학교과 중 물리 과목을 선택하여 물리 현상 중 하나인 포물선 운동 공식을 활용한 실험 시뮬레이션을 가상현실 공간에 구현한 뒤, 융합인재교육(STEAM) 이론의 학습 준거를 기준으로 실제 물리 교육에 활용이 가능함을 증명하였다. 이를 통해 가상현실 공간을 활용한 구체적인 교육 모형을 설계할 수 있음을 확인하였고, 전통적인 교육 모형과 현대적 기술의 접목으로 여러 교과에서 보다 효과적인 학습 방법으로 교육을 진행할 수 있음을 보여준다. 연구 결과와 관련하여 향후 연구 방안 및 실제 교육현장에서의 활용 가능성을 시사한다.
