| Audience: | Coaches, Curriculum/district specialists, Teachers |
| Skill level: | Beginner |
| Attendee devices: | Devices useful |
| Attendee device specification: | Smartphone: Android, iOS, Windows Laptop: Chromebook, Mac, PC Tablet: Android, iOS, Windows |
| Participant accounts, software and other materials: | If attendees have a device, they may more easily follow the presentation, which will be shared, and actively explore some of the shared website and resources. However, a participant without a device will get just as much out of the presentation. If a participant brings their own VR headset, they may show it, or offer to allow somone to use it. However this workshop is being taught with the expectation that no one other than the presenter will be using a VR headset. |
