Engineering students are expectedto think critically, come up with original solutions, and collaborate with other team members onprojects. Often, traditional teaching methods are not enough to build these capacities in youngengineers, which has led to the introduction of new instructional methods such as theincorporation of virtual reality as an authentic learning technique. Several authentic learningtechniques have been used in the past to introduce students to virtual reality.
