Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to get suggestions for the development of VR teaching materials for
the use of DX in nursing education. METHODS: The target literature was 23 items extracted using Ichushi Web.
The overview of VR teaching materials in basic nursing education was classified and analyzed. RESULTS: The
development and use of VR teaching materials for basic nursing education were triggered by COVID-19, and the VR space of many of them were experienced only visually and audibly. The aims of using these VR teaching materials were to enable learners to develop emphatic understanding, observation and assessment skills, and nursing techniques. Simulation-based education was often used as a teaching method. DISCUSSION: It is assumed that VR materials for basic nursing education were urgently adopted as a response to emerging infectious diseases and were often simplified. The objectives of the materials were universal and highly compatible with simulation education. However, we consider that there is still room for developing teaching materials that satisfy the three elements of VR. CONCLUSION: In basic nursing education, two types of teaching materials need to be developed: those that can be used for simulation education and those that take advantage of the features of VR.
