Abstract

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti persepsi dan cabaran yang dihadapi oleh guru sains sekolah rendah dalam mengintegrasikan teknologi VR dalam pembelajaran Sains. Reka bentuk kajian menggunakan pendekatan kaedah campuran dengan pengumpulan data melalui soal selidik melibatkan 250 orang guru sains sekolah rendah di Selangor yang dipilih secara rawak, serta temu bual mendalam dengan 15 orang guru sains yang turut menyertai soal selidik. Analisis data kuantitatif dilakukan secara deskriptif menggunakan perisian Statistical Package Social Science (SPSS) versi 29.0.2, manakala data kualitatif dianalisis melalui pendekatan analisis tematik. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa tahap kesedaran guru terhadap teknologi VR berada pada tahap sederhana, manakala tahap penerimaan guru adalah rendah. Namun begitu, persepsi guru terhadap keberkesanan VR adalah positif, terutamanya dalam meningkatkan minat murid, menggalakkan penglibatan aktif, serta memudahkan pemahaman konsep Sains yang abstrak melalui pendekatan pembelajaran yang lebih interaktif dan imersif. Walau bagaimanapun, cabaran utama yang dikenal pasti merangkumi kekurangan kemudahan serta akses kepada peralatan VR, tahap keberkesanan teknologi VR dalam meningkatkan pemahaman murid, dan keterbatasan sokongan serta kesediaan pihak kerajaan dan pentadbir sekolah. Implikasi kajian ini menekankan keperluan bagi pembangunan infrastruktur teknologi yang bersesuaian, penyediaan latihan intensif yang komprehensif untuk guru, serta penggubalan garis panduan pedagogi yang sistematik bagi memastikan pengintegrasian teknologi VR dapat dilaksanakan secara efektif dalam pembelajaran Sains.
