Jumping into immersive technology can be exciting, but without proper preparation, the most engaging lessons can be a complete fail. There are no guarantees that any planning will avoid potential problems, but it should help minimize potential pitfalls and improve the effectiveness of your augmented and virtual reality lessons.
The session will use virtual collaboration to answer some of the problems we face and target how to support our students. In these responses, various resources will be offered with specific use cases. The strategies will include whole group discussion, individual responses, and group activities.
We will cover these important questions:
What's the difference between augmented and virtual reality? (10 minutes)
What are your goals in using this technology? (10 minutes)
Who is part of the collaboration in using AR and VR? (10 minutes)
What are the best tools for my students? (30 minutes)
The questions will be available for all the attendees to answer and the session will address some of the key issues addressed in the responses.
My upcoming book, The Immersive Classroom is due to publish at the end of 2020 with ISTE.
