Immersive Technology: VR/AR

Welcome to Our Innovative Learning Environment!

We are thrilled to introduce Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) into our classrooms, enhancing the learning experience like never before. VR allows students to immerse themselves in interactive lessons, explore historical events, view virtual organisms, and travel to far-off places without leaving their seats. AR allows teachers to bring the curriculum to life, overlaying digital content onto the real world. Diving deeper into subjects like never before!
 

What are the benefits to using VR/ AR in the classroom?

  • Enhanced engagement and retention: Lessons come to life, immersing students in interactive 3D environments and simulations making learning exciting and fun.

  • Visualizing Complex Concepts: Difficult concepts are easier to understand when students can see, touch, and manipulate them in virtual space, fostering deeper comprehension.

  • Personalized, hands-on experiences: With VR, students can "travel" to places and experience various historical and scientific events without leaving their seats.  AR allows us to bring the curriculum to life, overlaying digital content onto the real world.

  • Preparing students for the digital future: VR and AR simulate real-life situations, helping students prepare for careers in fields like medicine, engineering and more.

Join us on this educational journey, where the boundaries of the classroom are limitless.

What VR/AR devices are the students using?

We are using ClassVR headsets. These devices provide a safe and secure way for students to explore VR & AR in the classroom with the teacher keeping full control over each device. Teachers have a collection of educational resources and content that enhance their lesson plans.
