This workshop was organised as part of the pre-conference program for the 14th International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK'25). The event was designed as a symposium scheduled for half-day duration in the afternoon on 4th March 2025. The goal of the LAVR workshop was to establish first conversations and bring together researchers and practitioners working on topics on the intersection of Learning Analytics (LA) and (immersive) Virtual Reality (VR) in educational settings. Overall, it aims to advance research on the potential and challenges of rich sensory data generated from VR for learning purposes. Ultimately, we strive to better understand how LA can improve the future design of educational VR applications. Therefore, we call for contributions on the role of LA in foundational research about the VR infrastructure and its multimodal analytics; VR for asynchronous learning experiences; and VR for synchronous teaching in the metaverse. There were 15 papers submitted for peer-review to this workshop, 4 of them were desk rejected. The remaining 11 were reviewed by at least two members from the Program Committee. From these 11 papers, five of them were submitted with the intention to be included in CEUR and the remaining six only as posters for presentation. Out of these five CEUR papers aiming for CEUR publication, five were accepted for this volume, two as regular papers and three as short papers. These five papers are the content of this workshop proceedings.
