Abstract
As an emerging information technology, virtual reality technology has advantages of immersion and interactivity, which enable students to simulate the real training in the virtual learning environment and effectively improve students’ vocational skills. The issues encountered in traditional skill training field of vocational education are discussed, includes high cost, high risk, low return rate, long training time, low efficiency, environmental pollution, difficult to reproduce and so on. It is explained that how the issues could be solved by integration of vocational education and virtual reality. Five different virtual reality modes are illustrated and demonstrated, which are multi-channel virtual reality technology, networked virtual reality technology, desktop virtual reality technology, panoramic virtual reality technology and wearable virtual reality technology. The application results in college shows that virtual reality technology enables students to explore in an immersive environment, inspire their enthusiasm for learning and innovation, cultivate their practical capability, and improve the average score and pass rate of courses.
