Radiation is important because of its applications in many fields, including the medical and nuclear fields. However, the invisibility of radiation and its dangers remain a challenge. In this paper, we develop digital teaching materials that can be safely understood by constructing an experiential learning environment using Mixed Reality technology and visualizing radiation. Specifically, a drift chamber for measuring cosmic rays is reproduced using mixed reality technology, and the principle of measurement and actual measured values are visualized for learning. A questionnaire was used to evaluate the teaching material and its effectiveness was analyzed. The results showed that this teaching material was effective in radiation learning.
