11Kokshetau University named after Sh. Ualikhanov, Republic Kazakhstan.
Background:
The potential of virtual reality (VR) in medical education in Kazakhstan proved substantial, offering innovative learning methods and creating secure, interactive training environments that facilitated the acquisition of both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
Material And Methods:
This study aimed to evaluate the application and effectiveness of virtual reality in medical education through a survey conducted with 53 students and 20 teachers. To assess the perceptions and satisfaction with VR in medical education, a survey was conducted utilizing a scale from 1 to 10.
Results:
Findings from the survey revealed that students perceived significant advantages in using virtual reality to grasp complex medical concepts and hone clinical skills. They appreciated the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge in practice, the availability of high-quality content across various disciplines, and the safe learning conditions provided.
Conclusion:
Teachers recognized virtual reality as a valuable educational tool but highlighted some challenges, including insufficient training and limited access to equipment. Addressing these obstacles is crucial for the successful integration of virtual reality into training programs, thereby unlocking its full potential and enhancing educational outcomes.
