Virtual Reality Training: Immersive Experience

Tuesday, October 30, 12:30 to 1:30 p.m.  Belk Library, Koenigsberger Learning Center 125         

The National Science Foundation has found that the use of virtual reality (VR) in training and education strengthens learning and gives learners the opportunity to engage in a direct practice prior to or during the real-world experience. The sense of “being there” when watching 360-degree videos allows students to have a better immersive experience to engage with people and issues they intend to (eventually) interact with, all while staying in their “learning zone.” 

Join Carmen Monico, assistant professor of human service studies, and Michael Vaughn, instructional technologist in TLT, to learn more about the benefits and challenges they’ve observed using VR in the classroom.
