A fire can have serious economic and human consequences. However, in many cases, rapid intervention and appropriate behavior can significantly reduce this threat. For this it is important that people are properly trained. Faced with the economic, ecological and organizational requirements and constraints linked to fire safety training, virtual training environments appear to be a judicious alternative to traditional training. However, before committing companies to invest in expensive devices, it is necessary to ensure the effectiveness of such devices. The literature is rich and divided on this subject, and it appears that certain characteristics of the system and of the learners are decisive. In this context, the objective of our work was to study the effects of immersion, the feeling of presence as well as the interaction between these 2 factors on the performance of conceptual and procedural learning. Certain variables were also controlled such as gender, tendency to immersion, previous experience in computers and video games. Our work shows that immersion promotes procedural but not conceptual learning, and that neither the sense of presence, nor the interaction between immersion and the sense of presence affect these two types of learning in our training task. Apart from the knowledge of fire which potentiates the effect of immersion on procedural learning, the variables considered in our study (computer experience, video game experience and genre) had no impact on performance. Understanding the impact of the technical device or the characteristics of users on conceptual and procedural learning is a major challenge in helping trainers to develop pedagogical devices in order to better exploit the opportunities offered by new technological approaches.

消防安全培训的虚拟现实:沉浸感和存在感对概念和程序获取的影响

火灾可能会造成严重的经济和人类后果。但是,在许多情况下,快速干预和适当的行为可以大大减少这种威胁。为此,对人员进行适当的培训很重要。面对与消防安全培训相关的经济,生态和组织要求及约束,虚拟培训环境似乎是传统培训的明智选择。但是,在承诺公司投资昂贵的设备之前,必须确保此类设备的有效性。关于这一主题的文献丰富且分歧很大,看来该系统和学习者的某些特征是决定性的。在这种情况下,我们的工作目标是研究沉浸的影响,在场感以及这两个因素在概念和程序学习上的作用。还控制了某些变量,例如性别,沉浸倾向,以前在计算机和视频游戏中的经验。我们的工作表明,沉浸感促进了程序学习,而不是概念性学习,并且在我们的培训任务中,存在感以及沉浸感和存在感之间的相互作用都不会影响这两种学习。除了可以增强沉浸感对程序学习的影响的知识外,我们研究中考虑的变量(计算机体验,视频游戏体验和体裁)对性能没有影响。
