An ideal Virtual Reality (VR) learning experience should be designed to create engaging interactions that help the learner assimilate new information, ideas and concepts resulting in the acquisition of new skills transferable skills. Create the VR environment so that the learning objectives are embedded in an experiential activity.

It is designed to inform the learner in two important areas. The first is to indicate the degree of “rightness” or “wrongness” of a response, action or activity. Feedback immediately informs the learner if they did the right thing, the wrong thing or if it was somewhere in the middle. Board game showing player's pieces.

Game developers take advantage of that by creating different levels to explore and by slowing revealing information. Leverage a learner’s natural sense of curiosity by not providing all the information or answers upfront. Reveal information a little at a time; add a sense of mystery or unknown outcome.

Situated cognition is a theory of instruction that suggests learning is naturally tied to authentic activity, context, and culture. To grasp subjects, learners need much more than abstract concepts and self-contained examples, they need to be exposed to the use of the information and cognitive tools in an authentic activity.

The game also includes the concepts of incomplete information and discovery. The game includes the concepts of strategic thinking in terms of the activities of the player which primarily revolve around exploring, expanding, exploiting, and exterminating opponents.

In an educational setting, a system could diagnose what the student knew or didn’t know and present her with just the right information to fill her gaps in understanding. Then, once the data is gathered, training related information, videos, etc. Ideal the course would deliver the exact type of content needed to the employee.

Well, it turns out that there is empirical evidence to suggest that we actually do “act out” the story at some level in our brains or, at least, in the regions of the brain associated with aspects such as processing goal-directed human activity, navigating spatial environments, and manually manipulating objects in the real world.

Automaticity can be defined as “the status of any knowledge or skill that has been used so many times that it can be activated from long-term memory and applied using minimal working memory resources.” Skills become automatic after repeated rehearsals of the activity.

Testing Games are games where the learner already needs to know the information to be successful. This is accomplished through a series of activities within the game that teaches the leaner what he or she needs to do. When creating a learning game, its important to match in-game activities with the skills you want to teach.

Learning is about action, activity and engagement. He or she needs to be interacting with the content, making decisions and seeing firsthand the consequences of those actions and activities. He or she needs to be actively engaged in practicing the task before them. Learning is an individual activity. We learn by talking.

Second, even if a game is not about problem-solving, the replayability of a game–the tendency of people to play a well-designed game over and over again means that knowledge is reinforced and that the learner is reviewing the information contained in the serious game. This different perspective is important.
