Abstract

The inclusion of immersive technologies such as augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality in the curriculum provides potential pedagogical benefits: providing a platform to increase student engagement, interaction, enjoyment, and a managed reflective learning experience. Research goal: theoretical justification for the use of immersive technologies in the educational process and the development of a blended course “Using the technologies of augmented and virtual reality in the practice of modern educational institutions” for retraining teachers. Research objectives: to determine the role and place of augmented and virtual reality technologies in the educational process and their use in teacher retraining for the formation of professional competence. Object of research: the formation of professional competencies of teachers in the retraining process. Subject of research: immersive technologies as a component of the school educational environment. Used research methods: theoretical methods containing analysis of scientific sources; empirical methods of interviewing and questioning teachers. Research results: analysis of scientific publications allows us to define the concept of augmented and virtual reality, its types, directions of using augmented and virtual reality in education, examples of its application in the educational process. The developed course “Using the technologies of augmented and virtual reality in the practice of modern educational institutions” for the retraining of teachers allows the formation of professional information and communication technologies competencies of teachers. Main conclusions: the introduction of immersive technologies in the educational process increases the effectiveness of training, promotes the development of logical thinking of students and increases the level of motivation of participants in the educational process. The identified gaps indicate the shortcomings of technical and methodological support for teachers to implement immersive technologies for education, which may motivate further work in the field.
