The importance of engagementhas been identified as key to retention, learning, and the development of self-regulated learners[3] – [9].

gain when the VR technology is employed.IntroductionConcepts in electricity and magnetism (E&M) are notoriously challenging for students to learn 1 ,due to the difficulty in grasping abstract concepts such as the electric force as an invisible forcethat is acting at a distance, or how electromagnetic radiation is permeating and propagating inphysical space. The sources of these difficulties are a lack of intuitive familiarity with thephenomena, physical principles and mathematical relations, and the three-dimensional (3D)nature of the concepts that do not translate well to two-dimensional platforms. Building physicalintuition to manipulate these abstractions requires means to visualize electromagnetism conceptsin a three-dimensional space
