However, the pedagogical potential of VR and its impact on learning outcomes compared to traditional methods is currently an under-explored area. This research investigates how well VR can support learning compared to traditional methods in the context of training firefighters in combating vegetation fires. A VR learning environment was developed, informed by a \u201cdesign for learning\u201d framework providing a pedagogical underpinning. A between-subjects experiment was conducted with 40 participants to measure the knowledge transfer of the VR learning environment against the official textbook. In addition, VR's theorized learning benefits of intrinsic motivation, situational interest, and self-efficacy were compared with textbook-based learning. Lastly, the design quality of the learning environment was assessed based on its learning and user experience. We employed a primarily quantitative approach to data collection and analysis, using a combination of knowledge test results and questionnaires, with supporting qualitative data from semi-structured interviews and observation notes to answer our hypotheses. The results found a significant difference between the knowledge transfer of both conditions, with textbook-based learning more effectively transferring factual and conceptual knowledge than VR. No significant difference was found in reported self-efficacy between the two conditions but was found in reported levels of intrinsic motivation and situational interest, which were higher in the VR condition. The design was found to have facilitated a good user and learning experience, assessed via questionnaire responses. During interviews, VR participants reported high levels of satisfaction with the experience, praising the hands-on learning approach and interactivity, while reporting frustration with the lack of knowledge reinforcement and initial difficulties with the controls. A key finding was that presence was found to be negatively associated with knowledge transfer, which we theorize to be caused by the novelty of the realistic VR environment distracting participants from the more familiar lesson content. This research contributes to the body of work related to knowledge transfer within VR in this domain while highlighting key pedagogical and design considerations that can be used to inform future design implementations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcomp.2024.1274828","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,20]],"date-time":"2024-02-20T04:29:17Z","timestamp":1708403357000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Design and assessment of a virtual reality learning environment for firefighters"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Steven G.","family":"Wheeler","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Simon","family":"Hoermann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Stephan","family":"Lukosch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Robert W.","family":"Lindeman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","volume-title":"Conceptions of the User in Computer Systems Design","author":"Agre","year":"1995"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1424","DOI":"10.1016\/j.compedu.2010.06.006","article-title":"How does desktop virtual reality enhance learning outcomes?
