The purpose of this study is to discuss how the complex interaction methods in the virtual reality teaching environment affect students' understanding of operational training. A specific medical experiment learning process is designed as a system that integrates three interaction methods. 48 students were tested mainly from the perspective of system usability and system operability, and students' opinions and feedback on the system were also collected by means of unstructured questions and answers. The test results show that additional perceptual channels will increase the cognitive load of learners. The virtual reality system integrating haptics does improve students' learning interest on the one hand, but also increases students' learning and cognitive load on the other hand.
