The PLISTEAM-ViRal (Project-Based Learning Integrated with STEAM and Virtual Reality) model is an innovative instructional framework designed to enhance students’ problem-solving skills, collaboration attitudes, and communication skills in chemistry education, specifically in cosmetic formulation contexts. The model combines the real-world, inquiry-driven nature of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) with the interdisciplinary integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM), supported by immersive Virtual Reality (VR) simulations for enhanced conceptual understanding and experimentation.
