Virtual reality
is learning without boundaries.
|
|
Students are
able to have experiences they could not ordinarily have in the classroom. VR
puts students inside of their subjects. They step inside of
Independence Hall in 1787 while studying the Constitution. They travel
through a computer to learn how it operates. They explore the inside of a
human cell. They become a part of what they are learning– this is the magic
of virtual reality. |
|
Inexpensive
VR programs are designed to meet specific state objectives and are
easily integrated into any curriculum. A complete library of VR learning
programs is available to use in each classroom in the school. VR
helps to educate, clarify, and reinforce each subject studied. Concepts
now make immediate sense to students when students become a part of
them, interacting with the subject matter first-hand. |
 |
|
Teacher
guides and learning materials are used in combination with VR programs,
providing a bridge into the traditional classroom. Guides, questions,
and “see and do” lists help focus students on content and guide
“post-VR” classroom discussions. |
