Systematic Literature Review on Virtual Electronics Laboratories in Education: Identifying the Need for an Aeronautical Radar Simulator

The objective of this work is to propose the development of a virtual electronics laboratory with an aeronautical radar simulator using immersive technologies to help students learn. To verify whether this proposal was viable, the systematic literature review (SLR) methodology was used, whose objective was to verify whether immersive technologies were being used effectively in education and, also, what challenges, opportunities, and benefits they bring to Education 4.0. For this, eight Research Questions (RQs) were formulated to be answered by articles based on the highest SLR scores. The results presented by SLR were as follows: there was an increase in the use of immersive technologies in education, but virtual reality (VR) is still more used in education than AR, despite VR being more expensive than AR; the use of these new technologies brings new challenges, opportunities, and benefits for education; there was an increase in the quality of teaching for complex subjects; and there was an increase in students’ interest in the content presented
