How to Quickly Create an Immersive Learning Classroom

How to Create an Immersive Learning Classroom

Take your class on field trips across distance and time. Or, immerse your class in a captivating performance.

  1. View the list of free AR/VR apps to select an experience appropriate for your class.
  2. Instruct your students to download the app prior to class. 
  3. Check out from the Newtown campus library a cart of low-end virtual reality goggles. 
  4. Students will open the app, place their phone in the goggles and secure the goggles around their face. 
  5. You've created an immersive, memorable learning experience!
