Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) technology is an emerging information technology. It can create virtual situations and create a virtual language environment for students, so that students can subtly master language knowledge and exercise language application in this environment. In order to solve the limitations of the current traditional English teaching, this paper designs and applies the distributed system of virtual reality technology in English teaching. Based on the discussion of Skehan's cognitive method, the theoretical basis of the application of distributed systems of technology in English teaching, the communication protocol and experimental objects of distributed systems integrated with virtual reality technology in English teaching are designed and outlined. Secondly, the overall process of the distributed system integrating virtual reality technology in English teaching is designed. Finally, based on the system design and application, a specific experimental test is carried out. The experimental results show that the students who learn English in the virtual reality technology distributed system and the students in the traditional English teaching group have similar scores in various question types. Even in the comparison of the question type scores of grammar matching, filling in the blanks and writing, Students in the virtual reality technology distributed systems group scored higher than those in the traditional study group, and their grammar matching scores were 0.78 higher than those in the traditional study group by an average score of 0.78. Fill in the blanks score of 9.46 is higher than the traditional study group's 8.63. which was 8.63. The final result proves that the application of the distributed platform system integrated with virtual reality technology in English teaching has high applicability.
