Enhancement of content and pedagogical skill
Receptive to feedback from colleagues
Service to the profession
In the Summer Semester of 2023, I took EDU 974: Immersive Experiences in Education which is an Eduspire/Wilson College graduate-level course. While I am not yet finished with this course, we are learning about Virtual Reality and how we are able to not only integrate it into our classes, but also use it to leverage our content that we are teaching students. In this course, we are exploring and experimenting with the many possibilities for virtual reality (VR) integration in educational settings with an easy-to-use personal VR device. Hands-on experiences include VR apps, games, virtual communication and an evaluation of the advantages of and barriers to VR educational use in the present and near future. I am excited to see what all I can create and do with the skills/info that I learn in this course and how I can utilize them in my classroom.
