Use of Imitative Virtual Simulators within the Educational Environment as a Way to Reduce the Social Exclusion of Young People

Annotation

The article is dedicated to the overview of virtual reality technologies in the educational system, aimed at social adaptation of self-excluded young people. Social isolation among the adolescents and the young people is a social problem lacking both explanation and resolution. However, successful examples of using virtual reality to decrease a sense of self-isolation among people who are unable to leave their room exist. Possible ways of using virtual reality for implementing isolated youg people into school grades are provided by the authors.
