How AR/VR Encourages Students to Achieve the Impossible

Recorded on May 15, 2019

 
This educational webinar (hosted by Edsurge) focuses on:
  1. The potential of AR/VR to impact student career paths.
  2. AR/VR’s growing influence on career fields such as aviation, healthcare, manufacturing and hospitality.
  3. How district leaders are using AR/VR technology to grow innovative STEM and CTE programs.
  4. Empirical and clinical evidence on how AR/VR impacts student engagement, understanding, and achievement.

Educational leaders using augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) in classrooms are joined by AR/VR experts in this unique panel discussion on Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) that enables students to enjoy learning experiences which would normally be considered dangerous, impossible, counter-productive, or expensive (D.I.C.E.) in traditional classrooms. K-12 and CTE students in over 2,000 schools and districts are using AR/VR learning apps to unlock a previously unimaginable world of content and experiences - this webinar dives into why risk-taking and experiential learning in a virtual environment can lead to academic success, and how it inspires students to take achievement to the next level.
