N2 - Virtual Reality (VR) is perceived to have potential for improving student learning. This project examined two instructional design principles, based on the unique affordances of VR, that informed the creation of lessons tested in classrooms. All groups of students experienced learning gains. In only one of the lessons did VR students outperform the students in the non-VR conditions. These initial findings support the potential learning benefits of VR and the need for further research.
