This systematic review explores the emerging role of online virtual reality (VR) technology in international Chinese language education, addressing the growing need to enhance educational sustainability through innovative methods. This review identifies key trends and applications of VR in Chinese education by analysing literature from the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases. A systematic search using specific keywords led to the selection of 19 relevant articles out of 526 published between 2020 and 2024, following strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings reveal three primary VR applications in international Chinese education: Virtual Reality Chinese Live Streaming Classrooms, Digital Venue Tours, and Chinese Simulation Training. The review also highlights significant challenges in international Chinese language education, including linguistic and cultural differences, the complexity of Chinese character strokes, pronunciation difficulties, and vocabulary acquisition. This review provides valuable insights for educators and practitioners, emphasizing how VR technology can be effectively integrated into international Chinese language education to overcome these challenges and ensure sustainable learning outcomes.Downloads
