Towards a Virtual Reality-Based Educational System for Teaching Single-Layer Perceptron Concepts
We present a Virtual Reality (VR) educational system for teaching single-layer perceptron concepts, offering an immersive and interactive approach to enhance traditional learning methods. The VR platform gamifies neural network training by simulating a logical OR gate in a factory-inspired environment, aiming at bridging abstract theories with practical applications. In a user study with eight participants, the system received positive but also critical feedback for its interactivity and usability, achieving a System Usability Scale score of 64.69. As an initial study on teaching machine learning in VR, this work highlights VR's potential to enhance comprehension and engagement through experiences.
