Teaching Reform of the Course Application of Virtual Reality Driven by the Dual Forces of Industry‑Education Integration and AI Empowerment
Aiming at the teaching dilemmas of the course Application of Virtual Reality for design‑oriented majors, this study takes the course Application of Virtual Reality as the research object and proposes a dual‑driven reform mode combining industry‑education integration and AI empowerment. It constructs a teaching‑operation mechanism of the “industry‑education integration‑AI‑empowerment double‑helix structure”, in which the two chains — the industry‑education‑integration chain (industrial demand‑educational supply‑evaluation feedback) and the AI‑empowerment chain (technical assistance‑intelligent learning companionship‑learning diagnosis) are coupled layer by layer to form a closed loop from competence generation to industry re-engagement. Teaching practice shows that the teaching reform under this mode relieves students’ programming anxiety, improves their creativity‑conversion rate and market adaptability of their works, and provides referenceable solutions for the teaching reform of interdisciplinary integration‑oriented courses.
