Designing Immersive Learning Experiences

Allows users to interact with virtual environments using where they are looking, typically tracked through: • Head orientation (in VR headsets without eye tracking)

• Gaze-based interaction

• Gesture Recognition

• Voice Interaction

• Eye Tracking Model

a technology that interprets human movements—typically hand, finger, or body gestures—into digital commands that can control or interact with a system without physical contact

• Gaze-based interaction

• Gesture Recognition

• Voice Interaction

• Eye Tracking Model

ol in education, especially when integrated with immersive technologies like AR, VR, and AI. It allows for more natural, hands-free, and engaging learning experiences.

Traditional narratives, such as novels, films, and plays, follow a linear structure, where the story unfolds in a set, predetermined order

• Linear Narrative

• Fully Interactive Narrative

• Interactive Immersive Experiences

• Emergent Narrative

The growth of interactive storytelling in the 21st century saw a significant leap with the advent of advanced technology in gaming and digital media

• Linear Narrative

• Fully Interactive Narrative

• Interactive Immersive Experiences

• Emergent Narrative

In these experiences, users don’t just make choices—they are fully immersed in a virtual environment, interacting with the story physically and emotionally.

Immersive UX involves the following except

• 3D Spatial

• multisensory inputs

• movements and navigation

• non-user embodiment

The following are the Key Considerations in UXD except

• Nonusability

• Spatial Navigation

• storytelling and narrative

• Presence and immersion

Use of sound, haptics, and visual cues to deepen immersion and emotion.

• Presence and embodiment

• Agency

• spatial narrative design

• multisensory engagement

Use for character-driven stories (e.g., AI-driven NPCs)

• Game engines

• 360° video

• interactive dialogue system
