Abstract
Virtual Reality of digital learning is widely applied. Instead of VR with high cost and difficulty in production, this study used the low-cost panoramic image VR to let students simulate the future workplace for situational learning. With the characteristics of the panoramic image VR, this study simulated the future workplace in English class of vocational high school. This study adopted the quasi-experimental research method. Participants were 53 vocational high school students in the department of Auto Mechanics. The purpose of the study was to explore the effect of the learning modes on the learning performance . The result showed that using the panoramic image VR can improve students’ workplace English learning. The findings are available to teachers and relevant units of education as a reference for future teaching and research.
