Reflections on a virtual reality soft skills teaching intervention

[EN] The paper analyses undergraduate finance students’ reflections on the impact of a VR soft skills teaching intervention and their understanding of the influence of soft skills on their future work environment. The contribution of the research can be found in the self-developed VR soft skills videos, the analyses of the reflections using the Pedler reflective framework and the findings that focus on the insights students gain through the teaching intervention. The research question is: What is the impact of the VR soft skills teaching intervention on the insights of undergraduate finance students when confronted by work-place scenarios? The findings of the study show that the students were able to reflect effectively using the Pedler reflective framework and to develop strategies of their responses to similar situations in future. The soft-skills teaching intervention is therefore an effective tool in developing the insights of students for their future.
