摘要
Although many studies have investigated the possible use of virtual reality (VR), extended reality (XR), and augmented reality (AR), there is a lack of research that specifically focuses on educators' opinions and awareness about the usage of these technologies in educational settings. Therefore, the present research aimed to investigate educators' opinions about XR, VR, and AR technologies in education, exploring their awareness, experiences, and interest in these technologies. Findings revealed limited knowledge about VR/AR/XR technologies among educators. The awareness did not vary based on teaching experience or professional training duration. While the majority of educators expressed curiosity about VR/AR/XR technologies, most had not used them in their teaching practice. The research identified that more experienced educators and those with longer professional training had tried these technologies more often.
