Abstract

Diagnostic Radiography (DR) education underwent a significant transformation from didactic lectures to interactive learning. It is shifting towards student-centred learning to active learning. This calls for further research to evaluate how e-learning and virtual reality impact learners’ learning. As Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has disrupted learning, this narrative aimed to review the impacts of electronic learning (e-learning) and virtual reality (VR) on learners’ learning experience. A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, Sage Journals Online, CINAHL Complete, Radiography Online, and Web of Science databases ranging from 2006 to 2023. Based on the results, the positive impacts of both e-learning and VR outweighed the negative impacts. It is not ideal to replace conventional learning with e-learning. Thus, a blended learning can be implemented with further research.
