Digital transformation in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era demands learning activities that reduce the application of the lecture method and influences learning methods as well as the media used. Virtual reality technology permits students to be acquainted with live learning with objects seen directly. This study aims to determine the efficacy of virtual reality learning media in upgrading student learning outcomes in social studies classes. The population group was composed of 72 class VII students of Sekolah Menengah Pertama Negeri 30 Jakarta. This study uses experimental research techniques using experimental class and control class with pre-test and post-test. In this study, data analysis was carried out using inferential analysis using the t-test. According to the findings, the use of virtual reality learning media has a positive impact on student learning outcomes. Students can use immersive virtual reality to achieve better learning outcomes. Students are also more interested in learning and effortlessly understand and discover new knowledge and experiences. In addition, students find it more enjoyable to learn using virtual reality learning materials, which is virtual reality.
