Abstract

AbstractThe aim of this study is to explore how the creation of spherical video‐based virtual reality (SVVR) influences students' creativity and curiosity in project‐based language learning (PBLL). Technology is widely used in various instructional contexts, and due to increasing interest in VR technologies, the current study investigated how SVVR technology in PBLL might influence students' self‐assessment of creativity and curiosity. Twenty‐seven students participated in an SVVR‐enhanced PBL course and were asked to complete two questionnaires on creativity and curiosity. Data from students' reflective journals and teacher notes were also analyzed to investigate implementations for using SVVR in language learning. The findings showed that students' self‐assessment of their levels of creativity and curiosity demonstrated statistically significant development. The findings from qualitative data analysis identified English language competence as a factor that could have influenced students' performance during the course. The findings support the potential for SVVR in PBLL for motivating students to embrace new ideas and perspectives while participating in authentic problem‐solving activities.
