In recent years, it can be said that the use of new virtual reality related technologies increased swiftly. Especially virtual reality headsets have become an important device in virtual reality and augmented reality applications. As a consequence of these developments, researchers started to investigate the use of virtual reality headsets in many fields. In this respect, the purpose of this study is to perform a systematic review with content analysis on the articles about the use of VR headsets in education in the Scopus database between 2014 and 2019. A total of 49 related article were found and examined to determine the major topics, research methods/models, most cited papers, data collection tools, participants and variables in these articles. Because no systematic review study has been conducted on this topic in literature, the study is considered to be important. As a result, it was found that the number of studies about the use of virtual reality headsets in education tends to increase by year. In addition, it was seen that quantitative methods as research methods, undergraduate students as participants, and pretest-posttests as data collection tools were the most favored ones. Besides, it was found that usability and experience were the most preferred dependent variables.
