“…Therefore, analysing the effect of different cultural context when developing and evaluating serious games as a training method, would represent a key challenge. Finally, in a game usability test, novices and experts may have different interests in exploring the virtual environment [ 102 ]. The studies included in this review, which involved both novices and experts in game assessment, did not perform a separate analysis for each group.…”

“…The studies included in this review, which involved both novices and experts in game assessment, did not perform a separate analysis for each group. However, [ 102 ] showed that novices tended to be keen on technology and spent some time playing with the devices before actually starting the design review and assessment tasks. In contrast, professional experts seemed to be more focused and jumped right into the activity.…”

Digital games have been successfully applied in different working sectors as an occupational safety training method, but with a very limited application in agriculture. In agriculture and other productive sectors, unintentional injuries tend to occur with similar dynamics. A literature review was carried out to understand how occupational risks are addressed during game-based safety training in different productive sectors and how this can be transferred to agriculture. Literature about “serious game” and “gamification” as safety training methods was searched in WEB OF SCIENCE, SCOPUS, PUBMED and PsycINFO databases. In the forty-two publications retained, the computer was identified as the most adopted game support, whereas “points”, “levels”, “challenges” and “discovery” were the preferred game mechanics. Moreover, an association can be detected between the game mechanics and the elements developed in the game. Finally, during the game assessment, much positive feedback was collected and the games proved to be able to increase the operators’ skills and safety knowledge. In light of the results, insights are provided to develop an effective, satisfying and engaging safety game training for workers employed in agriculture. Games can be best used to learn and they are certain to improve over the next few years.

“…El uso de la Realidad Virtual en el campo de la educación ha ganado un notable reconocimiento (Panerai, Catania, Rundo & Ferri, 2018) por ser una modalidad eficaz de formación y evaluación (Abi-Rafeh et al, 2019), la cual genera ventajas en los estudiantes (Klippel et al, 2019), entre las que se encuentra la comprensión de los contenidos planteados (Hanson, Andersen & Dunn, 2019), mejora de la creatividad (Yang et al, 2019) y rendimiento de los estudiantes (Cagiltay, Ozcelik, Berker & Menekse, 2019;Jacobsen et al, 2019), aumenta la participación (Lorenzo-Álvarez, Rudolphi-Soler, Ruiz-Gómez & Sendra-Portero, 2019) y el compromiso de los estudiantes hacia los contenidos y el aprendizaje (Makransky & Lilleholt, 2018), además de hacer más accesible la educación a todo el mundo (Sood & Singh, 2018) permitiendo con ello aumentar las competencias específicas de los discentes en su campo de conocimiento (Wu et al, 2019) Actualmente existen diversos estudios que analizan el uso de la Realidad Virtual y su influencia en la motivación, entre los que destacan los de Kim y Hall (2019), que determinaron que existe un efecto altamente significativo del disfrute percibido en aquellas personas que utilizan la Realidad Aumentada; Sattar et al (2019), que encontraron que la Realidad Virtual era lo mejor para los estudiantes de medicina, tanto en la motivación de aprendizaje como en la competencia de aprendizaje; Ho, Sun y Tsai (2019), que establecieron que los estudiantes del departamento de medios digitales mejora su motivación e interés por aprender animación 3D; Rockstroh, Blum y Goritz (2019), que determinaron que a la hora de implementar la Realidad Virtual a los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, mejoraba la motivación y ayudaba a los usuarios a mantener la atención.…”

Las tecnologías de la información y comunicación han acontecido grandes cambios en todos los sectores de la sociedad actual, pero, especialmente en el ámbito educativo, promoviendo el desarrollo de nuevas metodologías. Dentro de estos nuevos métodos de enseñanza se encuentra la Realidad Virtual que en los últimos años ha tenido una gran transcendencia ya que se ha demostrado que influye de forma positiva en la motivación del alumnado y, a la vez, en la mejora de su atención. De aquí surge el interés por realizar este estudio, con el objetivo de analizar en qué situación actual se encuentran las investigaciones existentes en la base de datos Scopus sobre el uso de la Realidad Virtual en educación para la mejora de la motivación en los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Los resultados revelan que en los últimos veinte años (1998-2018) la producción científica sobre el tema en cuestión ha crecido de forma exponencial, pasando de publicar un 0.27% en 1998, a un 14,48% en 2018. Terminamos el estudio proponiendo seguir investigando sobre este tema con la finalidad de seguir comprobando hasta qué punto es posible mejorar la calidad educativa gracias al uso de nuevas metodologías como la Realidad Virtual.

While Virtual Reality (VR) technology has experienced a recent growth in interest and offers immense potential in a number of domains, there is still insufficient information on the acceptance and adoption of this technology among individual users. The purpose of this chapter is to examine the acceptance and adaptation of people using VR technology in the construction industry and to identify factors that prevent VR technology from being adopted more widely in the construction industry. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to approach this research problem among 15 students and academic staff members at two universities. The results of this research indicate that VR technology is acceptable to people who work in the construction industry. However, there are barriers to further adoption of VR technology, namely high VR hardware and software requirements, low affordability, and low accessibility. This research also proposes several resolutions to these barriers, including preparing facilities by construction industries and universities, providing software and hardware requirements for VR technologies, and decreasing the price of VR devices. The results of this research are of immense value to suppliers and companies affiliated with this technology. Further research is required to demonstrate the functionality of VR technology in the construction industry.
