The main purpose of this study is to create a system of 3D virtual reality to learn the topic of “Electric & Magnet” in elemental science education. It combines networking technology to construct a learning environment that can help teachers to integrate information technology into science teaching, and try to explore the effects of learning in the system.
The subjects of this study are 136 sixth-grade students who are divided into two groups. The experimental group (two classes chosen at random) accepts the system of 3D virtual reality to learn “Electric & Magnet”; the control experiment group (the other two classes) accepts the traditional teaching.
The results of this study are as follows:
1. Students who accept the system of 3D virtual reality to learn “Electric & Magnet”, their learning achievements are better than those who accept traditional teaching.
2. In consideration of learning styles, the learning achievement between convergers and accommodators has a significant difference.
3. The interaction between experimental conduct and learning styles has no significant difference.
4. In experimental group, the learning achievement of different learning styles has no significant difference. In other words, the system has the ability to adapt to different learning styles.
According to the analysis of teaching investigation, though the system operating and content designing are not perfect, there are still 75% students glad to use it. Besides, the system gives a deep impression of learning material on students, it shows that the system has the character of aiding experiment; and it also appeals to students very much. Students have strong wills to use it, and at the same time, they enjoy recommending it to their classmates.
Key words: 3D virtual reality, Information technology into teaching, , Learning style
