Collaborative and individual learning of geography in immersive virtual reality: An effectiveness study

ABSTRACT: Many university-taught courses moved to online form since the outbreak of the global pandemic of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Distance learning has become broadly used as a result of the widely applied lockdowns, however, many students lack personal contact in the learning process.
