Although VR can perturbthe human sensorimotor system [7], [8] and lead to inaccurate or imprecise movements that may degradereal-world performance [9], its immersive quality offers a distinct advantage for procedural training bysituating learners within the task environment and enhancing spatial awareness and task comprehension[10], [11].

EthicsEducation (Seniuk Cicek et al., 2025) and from my thesis (Paul, 2024).Ethics is typically seen as a less important or ‘complementary’ topic relative to ‘core’ technicalcontent (Monteiro et al., 2017). To make ethics seem more relevant, it is often taught through‘objective’ technical framings, emphasizing quantitative approaches such as decision trees andrisk factors (Harris et al., 1997). Engineering is generally approached through an objective andpositivistic lens; however, this belief in the applicability of rational problem-solving to ethicalproblems gives engineers a false sense of power and authority. ‘Normative holism’ (Downey,2012) has been applied to conceptualize how the dominant engineering narrative of believingthat all technological
