Summary

This study tested whether using VR goggles helps midwifery students learn basic clinical skills better than traditional training. 128 students were split into two groups: one used VR simulations, the other had standard lab practice. Researchers measured skill performance and confidence through exams and surveys to see if VR makes a difference.
