Using Virutal Reality Tools in the Classroom

Generates more questions and engagement from students → students can "go" to places that would otherwise be unfeasible to experience in school. VR allows students to open up to the world around them and question things outside of their "bubble".

Bridging the gap between imagining and visualizing → some students have a hard time conceptualizing if they do not have a physical point of reference. VR gives access to students to experience in perfect scale how something would look.

💡 Gamifying the Classroom → to gamify a classroom means to add elements of a game like a leaderboard or a point system to encourage students to "level up". VR gives access to educational games that make the school work more fun. 

Costly Technology → these VR headsets are very costly and not realistic to have, or example, a class set of VR headsets. It would be even harder to have this technology in classrooms in low-income areas. 

Losing Human Connections → Students tend to be more isolated when using VR because of how it is an individual, immersion experience. It leads to less interaction between students and peers and students and teachers.

An excuse to not enter the "real world" → VR can be great because of how students can experience the world from their classroom. But does that mean that students are not getting a well rounded experience? It can limit the amount of field trips stud-nts can go on.
