Adopting Virtual Reality in Inclusive Higher Education offers a timely exploration of how higher education can realize the transformative potential of VR while foregrounding accessibility and equity through inclusive design.
This volume challenges the persistent inequities in educational technology adoption, presenting a rigorous framework that integrates theoretical foundations, practical implementations, and institutional strategies. Through compelling case studies and evidence-based insights, it demonstrates how inclusive design broadens access and supports learning for diverse students, addressing barriers of ability, socioeconomic status, and cultural background. Readers will discover how pedagogical effectiveness and inclusive design function as inseparable imperatives, each strengthening the other, rather than competing priorities. With a focus on sustainable capacity-building, the book reveals how educators and institutions can embed inclusion across pedagogical rationale, instructional design, and institutional planning, ensuring VR adoption serves diverse learners rather than privileging technological novelty.
Essential for educators, administrators, and researchers, this volume redefines what it means to innovate responsibly in the digital age.
