Abstract
This paper presents "Imersiva," an integrated system designed to enhance English language conversation practice through the synergy of Virtual Reality (VR), Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), and real-time pedagogical monitoring. While traditional methods often struggle with student anxiety and lack of immersion, "Imersiva" utilizes a service-oriented architecture to connect VR scenarios, such as a fruit market and a restaurant, with Large Language Models (LLMs) like Gemini 2.5 flash and GPT-5 mini. The system enables authentic, low-anxiety interactions with virtual agents while providing educators with a web-based dashboard for classroom orchestration. Preliminary results from usability and efficacy tests conducted with 15 participants, using a pre-test and post-test methodology, demonstrate significant improvements in conversational confidence and engagement. Evaluation through the System Usability Scale (SUS) yielded high scores, confirming the platform’s intuitive design and its potential as a high-impact teaching tool. These findings suggest that the integration of immersive XR environments and intelligent conversational agents can effectively bridge the gap in oral practice within the educational sphere.
Virtual reality has potential to enhance TBLT-based instruction through immersive, interactive, and authentic environments that provide access to native speakers and implications are offered for language educators, curriculum designers, and researchers seeking to incorporate VR into communicative language teaching in m...
Aim/Purpose: The application of immersive virtual reality (iVR) to foreign language learning is increasing, but evidence remains dispersed across tasks, platforms, and outcomes, making it difficult for educators to determine which designs are effective.
Background: This paper addresses this problem by systematically s...
