Özet
This research aims to reveal the changing perceptions of elementary school teacher candidates who participated in online virtual reality (VR) training. The research consists of a qualitative study of 30 elementary school teacher candidates. Data was collected at the start of the course using a demographic information form and an online opinion form. The teacher candidates in the study participated in four-day online courses and recompleted the same opinion form at the end. The data was analysed by the deductive content analytical method. It was found from the research that elementary school teacher candidates had developed basic technical abilities and a profound awareness of VR technology in their future teacher training. It was also concluded that the training given to the classroom teacher candidates is effective in developing an innovative perspective and raising awareness of how VR can be incorporated in teaching.
