[Trends forward] The predictability of VR education market is question mark or exclamation mark

The evolution of VR was not in 2015 but in 1935-1961 when it was still in its embryonic stage.

VR belongs to the perception level, and it doesn't appear in volley. There are still some in front of it. Here we simply summarize the evolution of human perception of the outside world into the following four stages:

Part 1 Evolution of the cognitive level

1) Vision

2) Hearing

3) Interaction

4) perception

Vision, the earliest newspaper in the world appeared in ancient China. "The newspaper" is the oldest newspaper in the world. At that time, there were newspapers for every two people on average.

Hearing, radio and television, radio from the collective to the individual, television from black and white to color, through radio and television we know what happened farther away.

After the interaction, after the computer appeared, we could communicate with people across the sea across the screen without going out or going abroad. However, no interaction was involved.

Perception, which is today's VR.

And what can be done to apply VR to education? Can it be read like a newspaper? Can you watch a movie with a big screen like a TV? Yes, and experience cool. Can you study with other people in a foreign country? Of course, you can also sit in a teacher with a classmate from a different country. You can speak freely, communicate with your teacher, and put forward your ideas without being restricted by the classroom space. We all know that a class can accommodate 40-70 students at most, but in a VR scene, it can have unlimited capacity. Everyone is on the same platform, regardless of the number of people.

What does Part 2 VR look like in the classroom?

Maybe I can't tell you now, what kind of role VR can play in future education, but I can tell you the current education:

We all had a biology class in the third year. Before we went to the lab, we had one or two theoretical lessons. The teacher will tell me that during the experiment, the alcohol lamp should not be blown, it should be covered with a lid, the valves used for experiments should be tightened, and so on. Then the next class we went to the lab, to the lab, to do a lot of what the teacher said in the class, we began to rush, recall the theoretical knowledge in the classroom, but unfortunately there are many steps to forget.

Soon after 45 minutes have passed, and oh, there are still many details of this class that are not completed! You are very reconciled, but I am sorry that I will leave the laboratory. Going to the lab again is the next stage. You may not be familiar with this stage. You may be upset about the next stage. You are very upset, but there is no way. The syllabus is such a progress.

OK, look at a theoretical knowledge scene. When the teacher talks about the 9 planets, he is very hard to tell you the relationship between them, and the trajectory, even adding body language, but you still know little about it.

At this time, with VR teaching, we can simulate and practice many times on VR devices when we go to biology classes. When you learn the knowledge of the 9 planets, you will walk like you walk in the universe. Unconsciously, in the process of refreshing your mind, you will be able to remember deeply in your heart. Your proficiency is as good as on the spot. Not knowing these principles and knowledge unconsciously, does it sound good?

Part 3 combines VR and education to solve education problems

What qualities of students are the most important?

1) Creativity

2) Good quality

3) Individuals with full-scale development of moral intelligence

I have recently seen an article saying that a former senior of Peking University went to Peking University to make a speech and saw the students in the audience behaving indifferently to her impassioned speech and at the same time bewildered. She gave up what she had to say before and said to the students under the table:

“Although you were admitted to a prestigious school, because you are very clever? Are you better than others, or are you all geniuses and better than ordinary people? I don’t think it is entirely true that you are more able to suppress yourself and suppress nature. I'm here to say something here, you don't care about the exploration of new knowledge, you don't have strong enthusiasm, you don't look at it, you don't care about the information of the future. Most of you will think that anyway Afterwards, there are many big companies coming to grab you, because entering the elite schools means that everything will have become a success and become a foregone conclusion. It will not be too bad, and will not be so concerned about all the curiosity and creativity. Other information points It doesn't seem so important, is it really the case? Not necessarily. "

We have always said that we must train students who want to stand in higher dimensions and even think in the perspective of the world. We must have a vision and the logic of looking at the problem must be fluent enough.

But how do you think from the perspective of the world to consider the whole situation? You have not even left the country, do not understand the world pattern, how to stand on this dimension to think?

VR now allows you to be together with students from another country in a single environment, discuss one point of view together, and it is in the same classroom. The other side is abroad, and you are in the country. Any point of your communication is transmitted in real time. , And you can all have interactions, and many people interact. You may say that I can also use video, but there is a problem. In the video, you and the other person cannot coexist in an environment. VR can satisfy both of you in a scenario where both parties discuss you very much. Interested topics and interesting ideas. These, sounds like, have you been so excited? Have you ever rushed to try? No need to go abroad, you can wear a VR helmet anywhere, yes, it sounds cool.

Therefore, what we must train is not students who theoretically stand on international thinking and who have logic and judgment knowledge. Instead, we must learn to learn from each other in an environment and know each other’s ideological dimensions. Comprehensively realize the students who think in the international perspective.

Part 4 With VR, will the teacher use the blackboard?

If you have these above, will you be wearing a VR helmet and will you need a blackboard?

Of course it needs.

The future of VR education must include traditional teaching methods. Teachers will still use blackboards, PPT, and a lot of multimedia together. VR just makes our class richer, not an alternative.

Part 5 Research on VR Education in Colleges and Universities at Home and Abroad

Nowadays, there are 553 universities in the world that have applied for the establishment of VR related education courseware. Nearly 50 domestic companies have started to do VR labs, and there are nearly 100 foreign ones.

About one-third of the states in the United States have established web-based virtual schools to provide students with different levels of learning opportunities outside the classroom.

The Acklam Grange Middle School in Middlesbrough, United Kingdom, opened a virtual school in the “Second Life” virtual world and allowed teachers and students to use virtual school teaching and learning.

What are the layouts of domestic universities?

Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has set up a national key laboratory for new technologies in virtual reality, with a total area of ​​400 square meters. Professor Zhao Yuping was the director of the laboratory and Wang became an academician as the director of the Academic Committee.

The president of Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Zhao Zhengxu, relied on the main faculty and equipment of the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering to set up research institutes for computer and information engineering, virtual reality technology and virtual simulation, and small-world network systems.

There are many colleges and universities in China that are also deploying VR labs, such as Tsinghua University’s research on the presence feeling and so on. The Harbin Institute of Technology is applying research on human-computer interaction.

Part 6 There are currently three aspects of VR education

1) The hardware is not enough to support the development of full courseware

2) The contents are not rich enough, they are more single, and they are mostly based on small samples.

3) How to use VR and teaching collections, it takes time and effort to go with teachers to create courseware

Part 7 Trends of Future VR

We all know that Taobao is going to do a Buy+ project, but then it is time to think about it. This is a huge project and requires a lot of technical personnel to do modeling. At present whether these domestic technical personnel are sufficient, obviously talent is not enough. The personnel in this area are very scarce and it is not enough to support Taobao to do this thing.

Google's recent coffee machine simulates the flow of coffee in a simulated environment. KFC is also using a virtual environment to simulate the operating environment. The advantage of this is that it reduces and reduces the waste of food in practice because of operational errors. There are even more companies that are deploying virtual reality for more application simulations.

Tencent and Ali are the most proud companies in this era. It may be 10 years. After 20 years, these companies will be forgotten by others just like Changhong and Konka. Changes and extensions are particularly important. When Nokia shut down, he said that our research and development expenses are four times that of Apple. I spent so much money, and I didn't know what was wrong and was eliminated. This is the age. Their time has passed. Therefore, the industry has risen and declined.

Regarding the future, one thing that can be determined is: Subversion is now in the future. With VR and AI, the traditional education model will one day undergo earth-shaking changes and become what we imagined.
