The research proposal presented here focuses on the implementation of Virtual Industrial Attachment (VIRA) in tertiary institutions, with a dedicated exploration of a holistic approach to address the limitations of traditional industrial attachment programs. In the current landscape of tertiary education, the efficacy of industrial attachment programs has come into question, with issues related to capacity constraints, geographical limitations, and unforeseen disruptions becoming more apparent, particularly in light of the global COVID-19 pandemic. In response to these challenges, VIRA has emerged as a promising alternative, utilizing virtual reality, augmented reality, and digital simulations to replicate real-world workplace experiences within a virtual environment.
This research proposal seeks to evaluate the feasibility of integrating VIRA into tertiary institutions, to identify the benefits and limitations it presents to students, educational institutions, and industry partners, and to develop a comprehensive approach for its enduring success. It draws inspiration from the works of scholars who have recognized the transformative potential of technology in education (Anderson & Dron, 2011), as well as those who have explored the immersive and experiential learning possibilities afforded by virtual reality in education (Mikropoulos & Natsis, 2011; Wu et al., 2013).
The findings of this research are expected to contribute to the enhancement of student learning experiences and prepare them to excel in a dynamic and technology-driven workforce. This research proposal aligns with the vision of a future where VIRA not only complements traditional industrial attachment but also serves as a flexible and adaptive pathway to immersive learning and career readiness.
