linked to the hippocampus, and research has shown that active spatial learning can promote the formation of new neurons in this brain region.

Motor learning: VR and AR allow learners to acquire motor skills by simulating physical activities. This can help strengthen neural connections in the motor cortex and cerebellum that are responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing movements. Social Learning: Social learning is the process by which individuals learn through observation, interaction, and communication with others. VR and AR enable social interactions in virtual environments, promoting the learning of social skills and norms. Mirror neurons in the brain, which play a role in imitation and empathy, are particularly important in this process. Although the relationship between VR, AR, and biochemical processes in the brain is complex, these points demonstrate how such technologies can a ff ect cognitive functions relevant to learning and memory formation. Brain areas involved The use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) in a learning context involves a variety of brain areas that play a role in di ff erent aspects of learning and information processing. Here are some of the most important brain areas and their relationships to each other: Prefrontal cortex: This area of the brain is responsible for executive functions such as planning, decision making, and problem solving. In the learning context, the prefrontal cortex can help prioritize relevant information and develop learning strategies. It interacts closely with other brain regions, such as the hippocampus, to consolidate and retrieve memories.
