Accordingly,This paper focuses on how to apply virtual reality to technology teaching in order to improve the teaching of technology in the past and promote students technological literacy.The conclusions are as follows: (1) VR is an integrated learning approach to the curriculum; (2) VR should be applied to the teaching curriculum with emphasis on the balance between play and learning; (3) effectively utilizing the characteristics of VR to help students learn abstract concepts of structural design. Thus, the recommendations are as follow: (1) the application of virtual reality curriculum should focus on task design. Set clear goals and give students greater freedom of creativity. (2)VR can be applied to the teaching of life science and technology in three aspects: model, architecture and engineering, which can make up for the difficulties in making the course. (3) Teachers can build teaching models or virtual classrooms through VR, so that students can imagine more in space.
