In the first stage of evaluation, the online survey was implemented to ask students about their learning experience of using 360VR. The second stage of 360 VR effectiveness evaluation focused on the objective comparison of students learning outcomes between the 360VR method and the traditional approach. The students’ experience survey results indicated that 360VR and virtual walkthrough experiences benefited students' understanding of the site during the design process. Students reflected positive 360 VR experiences on their engagement in learning, special layout, visualization, and educational effectiveness. The result of the student learning outcome evaluation showed no significant difference between 360 VR compared to no site visit. However, there was a significant improvement in students’ spatial planning, finish selection, and total scores when using the 360 VR method compared to an on-site visit.  \nKeywords  \n360VR, 3D scan, interior design studio, service-learning projects, learning outcome  \nIntroduction  \nThe on-site experience is a crucial part of learning in design education as it allows students to accurately examine the physical environment. During the site visit, students receive important information by experiencing the physical space with all senses, taking on-site measurements, photographing the space, and interacting with the users inhabiting in the space. However, site visit also involves some challenges in covering time and cost associated with long distance travelling, the uncertainty of weather, safety issues, and increase in coordination (Wolf et al., 2021) . Even design education has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic because the era of social distancing limited the students’ site-visit experience.  \nAs an alternative to a physical site visit, a 360-degree panorama-based Virtual Reality (360VR) has been implemented in a variety of sectors, not only in marketing, retail, and hospitality, but also in architecture, engineering, and construction sectors. The development of a Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)-based mapping technology has enabled users to conveniently capture 3D indoor environments in digital format, and this technology accelerated the virtual experience spread. The 360VR also has advantages in real-world visibility different from Virtual Reality (VR) technology based on 3D modeling. In turn, the increased use of 360VR has transformed human experiences, assisting the co-existence of virtual and physical environments. However, some questions still need to be answered to implement virtual experience in educational settings regarding its effect on student performance. Thus, the goal  \nof the presented study is to qualitatively and quantitatively examine the use of 360 VR technology in students’ learning in educational settings.  \nLiterature Review  \n3D Scan Technology  \nThe 3D scan technology captures a projection of spherical images of the surrounding environment. In this process, the camera is located at the center of the image plane realizing human-eye behaviors (Pham et al., 2018) . As this technology provides real-world visibility, it has been increasingly used in a variety of industries. For instance, retail, marketing, and hospitality sectors have implemented virtual showrooms and exhibits, and such 3D experience has shown the benefits of increased traffic to the store while reducing costs and carbon emissions. When real estate development and home design services provide 3D virtual property, it boosts commissions, the number of listings, and productivity while saving time (Sulaiman et al., 2","cbCaisf8jxayEuRu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisf8jxayEuRu","pdf",487768,14,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Literature Review\n## 3D Scan Technology\n## Evidence on 360VR Effectiveness and Limitations","[{\"question\":\"How did the study evaluate 360VR for interior design education?\",\"answer\":\"It used a two-stage evaluation: an online survey to capture students’ learning experiences with 360VR, and an objective comparison of learning outcomes between 360VR and the traditional approach.\"},{\"question\":\"What benefits did students report from using 360VR site visits?\",\"answer\":\"Students reported better understanding of the site during the design process, with positive impacts on engagement in learning, special layout and visualization, and overall educational effectiveness.\"},{\"question\":\"How did learning outcomes compare between 360VR, no site visit, and on-site visits?\",\"answer\":\"Compared with no site visit, there was no significant difference.
