I've hosted the Immersive Experience at several conferences and I've received the most positive feedback than anything I've ever offered at a conference.
The learners will discover, unpack and problem solve through a series of AR/VR challenges. The challenges provide the participant to understand the latest immersive experiences while also giving ideas to bring the content directly into the curriculum.
Each station is set up with the appropriate resources to fully explore the tools and someone is always available to help. Each station will provide a challenge to discover and immersive the participant into AR/VR.
The participants will go through several stations of AR/VR content that will challenge them to explore new augmented and virtual reality technologies.
Each area is focused on attendees getting a hands-on experience using AR/VR. The attendees will start with directions at the info table to go to each station and complete a task to understand the tool. When they complete the task, they will receive a stamp on their sheet and when all stations are completed, they get an AR/VR goodie bag (first 100 people). In the remote environment, participants will submit completed stations online. Each station will have a sheet printed with a QR code for participants to download the apps. Attendees will need devices to complete every station.

1. AR - Minecraft Earth or surprise app
