New Publication: What variables are connected with system usability and satisfaction?

22 Dezember 2023

Our recent study involving 64 university students explores system usability and satisfaction with Virtual Reality (VR) in the educational sector. The study revealed that virtual field trips, increasingly replacing conventional excursions, are regarded as a suitable teaching method. Key factors such as ease of use, usefulness, sense of presence, and cognitive load significantly contribute to system usability and user satisfaction. The findings provide crucial insights for designing effective VR learning environments and highlight the potential of VR as an innovative teaching method.

NEW PUBLICATION - Stability of Vocational Interests During University Studies

Students’ vocational interests can be described by Holland’s theory of occupational choice. Holland distinguishes six interest dimensions here: realistic, investigative, artistic, social, enterprising, and conventional. Although these attributes are relatively stable during adolescence, their stability increases dramatically during university studies. Because vocational interests are often a factor in career counseling and the choice of what to study, it is essential to investigate the extent to which they develop during the first years of college. This study examines the NEPS first-year student cohort to investigate the stability of students’ interests and aspirations.
