In modern world, the dynamic development of information technologies leads to corresponding changes in educational process, that is, to a great extent, founded on implemented technologies. The new forms of information presentation are declared by designers as the most effective for teaching. Therefore, the question of their real value for education and their impact on the students' perception of educational content arises. The study of virtual reality, which is in principal a new form, impact on students' perception of educational material appears to be of importance. Specifically, we mean it in comparison with traditional forms, which are video and text. Purpose. In our article, we will assess students' perception features of learning material presented in various formats, thus its efficiency for educational process. Materials and Methods. We used the questionnaire method. The study participants were students of Don State Technical University. They were asked to assess materials presented in various forms: video, text, and VR. Results. The conducted research showed that the students highly assessed VR and video forms of information presentation. They think the stated forms are the easiest for perception, they are engaging and allow students to memorize material in the best way possible. While giving them the highest priority for further education, respondents also noted the difficulties with full immersion in the material. Discussion. The implementation of new forms of information presentation and VR specifically can help induce full immersion in the material. However, it requires familiarization for students with the content provided, which is organized in video and text form.
