In recent years, virtual reality technology has been progressively integrated into the classroom teaching process with the aim of enhancing academic performance and increasing students' interest and enthusiasm for learning. Virtual reality has become a crucial component of modern educational technology. Therefore, the objective of this study is to summarize the findings in the literature through a comprehensive review. Specifically, this review focuses on literature published between 2018 and 2022 that explores the effectiveness of virtual reality technology in education. Throughout the study, research articles published during the specified timeframe were analyzed using predetermined criteria. The analysis encompassed research objectives, methodologies, topics, and outcomes of each article. Studies have demonstrated that the incorporation of virtual reality into instruction not only has a positive impact on students, but also increases students' interest and motivation. Consequently, in the more educators are likely to consider utilizing virtual reality in art classrooms to enhance students' skills, improve instructional strategies, and enhance teaching outcomes and students' learning capabilities. The findings of this research provide valuable insights and methods for educators.
