Abstract

This study explores the effect of urban design education applying virtual reality technology on students' learning motivation. The empirical study was conducted on 28 students majoring in urban design at a university. The first experimental group of 14 students was taught with a virtual reality application, and the second comparison group of 14 students was taught with a classic education method with drawing and modeling. The results are summarized as follows. First, there was a significant difference in students' learning motivation between the two groups. Based on the ARCS model, the experimental group showed higher scores in all items including the total score compared to the comparison group, and in particular, the attention and satisfaction factors showed statistically significant differences between the two groups. The students in the experimental group felt great interest in the application of virtual reality in the design processes and were satisfied with sharing on-time opinions with team members. Second, the two groups of students showed differences in what they considered important factors in the district unit plan. The students in the control group chose open space, building facade, and color as crucial factors, but the students in the experimental group prioritized open space along with three-dimensional aspects such road width and building height. Based on these findings, this study suggests that the application of virtual reality in urban design education can be an alternative method in promoting students' learning motivation.
