This book explores how immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) environments, avatar embodiment, and spatial presence can enhance vocabulary learning outcomes and writing performance.

Drawing upon established theoretical frameworks, including Activity Theory, Schema Theory, and the Cognitive Affective Model of Immersive Learning (CAMIL), the chapters combine theoretical discussion with empirical evidence from a large-scale experimental study involving 230 learners. Feng and Ng take an interdisciplinary approach that integrates language education, educational technology, cognitive psychology, and virtual reality research to provide practical guidance on iVR instructional design, including considerations related to spatial learning, learner engagement, and technological implementation.
