Every year, lives are lost due to electrical safety accidents that could have been prevented with proper education and awareness of electrical safety. To prevent such accidents, experiential education is more effective than indoctrination education. This paper describes the electrical safety education system based on virtual reality (VR) and evaluates effect of the proposed system. Users operated the experiential electrical safety education system, and they were provided electrical stimulation in an electric shock experience using a haptic device. Appropriate stimulation values were calculated according to age (children vs. adults) and gender through experiment. The scenario in which participants experience electrical safety in the home environment was structured, and related educational contents was produced. A total of 68 healthy elementary students evaluated the educational effect of the system. The results showed that the educational effect and the sustainability of effect of the proposed system are superior to those of existing multimedia learning methods. By implementing electrical safety education stimulating the senses of human, the learning effect was promoted and this experiential education would be able to prevent electrical accidents.

This study focuses on what changes are required as to a curriculum of dance department in the university in the age of the 4th industrial revolution. By comparing and analyzing the curricula of dance department in the five universities in Seoul, five academic subjects as to curricula of dance department, which covers what to learn for dance education in the age of the 4th industrial revolution, are presented. First, dance integrative education, the integration of creativity and science education, can be referred to as a subject that stimulates ideas and creativity and raises artistic sensitivity based on STEAM. Second, the curriculum characterized by prediction of the future prospect through Big Data can be utilized well in dealing with dance performance, career path of dance-majoring people, and job creation by analyzing public opinion, evaluation, and feelings. Third, video education. Seeing the images as modern major media tends to occupy most of the expressive area of art, dance by dint of video enables existing dance work to be created as new form of art, expanding dance boundaries in academic and performing art viewpoint. Fourth, VR and AR are essential techniques in the era of smart media. Whether upcoming dance studies are in the form of performance or education or industry, for VR and AR to be digitally applied into every relevant field, keeping with the time, learning about VR and AR is indispensable. Last, the 4th industrial revolution and the curriculum of dance art are needed to foresee the changes in the 4th industrial revolution and to educate changes, development and seeking in dance curriculum.

Under the influence of COVID-19, as a measure of social distancing for about two years and one month, non-face-to-face services using ICT element technology are expanding not only to the education sector but to all fields. In particular, as educational programs using the Metaverse platform spread to various fields, educators, and learners have more learning experiences using Edutech, but problems through non-face-to-face learning such as reduced immersion or concentration in education are raising In this paper, to overcome the problems raised through non-face-to-face learning and develop metaverse immersive media digital contents to improve the educational environment, we utilize VR (Virtual Reality) based on an immersive metaverse to provide education / Training contents and the educational environment was established. In this paper, we presented a system to increase immersion and concentration in educational contents in a virtual environment using HMD (Head Mounted Display) for learners who are put into military education/training. Immersion was further improved.

Virtual Training generates virtual situation or environment with specific goals in order to instruct trainees as if they are in the real-world. Recently, the demand of experiencing certain incident, which we are not able to experience in real life, has been increased along with the fast developing Virtual Reality (VR) technology. Particularly, Virtual Training(VT) enables us to learn various fields those require high risk and high cost. The system of VT provides interaction and allows us absorb these learning materials better which augments learning effect. Based on the demand of Virtual Training system, this research analyzes current education paradigm National Competency Standards (NCS) in Korea and suggests possible education that utilizes Virtual Training system. At the end of the day, our future goal is to apply suggested Virtual Training contents to universities that reflect NCS curriculum like polytechnic university.

360-degree video streaming technologies have been widely developed to provide immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences. However, high computational power and bandwidth are required to transmit and render high-quality 360-degree video through a head-mounted display (HMD). One way to overcome this problem is by transmitting high-quality viewport areas. This paper therefore proposes a motion-constrained tile set (MCTS)-based tile extractor for versatile video coding (VVC). The proposed extractor extracts high-quality viewport tiles, which are simulcasted with low-quality whole video to respond to unexpected movements by the user. The experimental results demonstrate a savings of 24.81% in the bjøntegaard delta rate (BD-rate) saving for the luma peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) compared to the rate obtained using a VVC anchor without tiled streaming.

This study highlights the experiences and lessons learned, through the introduction and production of virtual reality in elementary school classes. We analysed the effects of virtual reality-contents production education using the data from the K.A.P survey, as well as the results from the class using virtual reality. We used Cospaces as a tool for coding the virtual reality content. It was not difficult for students to learn its functions because it could be coded with blockly based programmes. We analysed the results in the practice area. Based on these results, we suggest how to apply this to the elementary school field.

Our society is endemic in safety insensitivity, yet we have been concerned for safety education and disaster drill since the Sewol Ferry accident. However, the practical training costs very high, and it has its limit to increase reality. Recently, industry fields put emphasis on virtual reality (VR) as alternatives, so various contents are invented by using advantages of VR. The paper explores crucial application in 3-dimensional simulation for fire drill, suggests novel design, and contemplates about educative result through designing process. In order to construct and materialize the suggested system, practical 3D spatial information model and various disaster-drill scenarios are necessary. Also, to apply game elements for augmentation in users' utility, educations based on computer science and visual art are inevitable, which requires skills in programing and modeling respectively. Thus, this study investigates educational effect of convergence field through the suggested system designing process.

The purpose of this study is to discover the nature of users' flow experience in virtual reality education services. To this end, we analyzed the factors that affect the user's immersion in virtual reality by applying grounded theory, which is one of the qualitative research method. An experiment was conducted on 11 subjects who were interested in conducting virtual reality education, and conducted interviews after experiments. All of the interviews were documented and configured to construct a paradigm model through the steps of opening coding, axial coding, selective coding. Based on the results, it presents suggestions for future virtual reality education services.

In this study, an electronic parts assembly training system using Leap Motion was developed in consideration of the processes actually operated in the assembly process of electronic products. Based on Leap Motion and Oculus VR equipment, the system was developed to transfer user's hand movement data in real time and convert it into hand movement in virtual space so that electronic parts assembly simulation can be performed step by step. Through this, it was confirmed that the user can obtain an experience similar to the actual electronic parts assembly work, prevent errors that may occur during the assembly process, and improve proficiency. It is expected that this thesis will provide directions for the quality improvement and development of various education and training programs for virtual reality-based manufacturing processes.
