Create your Own NCVR Adventure
With the changes being made to Google Expeditions and apps like Google Poly, how can you continue to place the power of virtual reality into the hands of your students? What if you and your students could create virtual reality projects to experience our state, local and national parks as well as historical sites. Join us to collect digital artifacts of the beautiful places in our state and learn how to use our devices, apps, and free websites to create virtual reality projects that foster engagement, critical thinking, and creativity. You will be inspired by your surroundings to create an interactive VR experience, and share with others. Student created VR can be used as a choice in any situation where teachers would use traditional digital projects like slide presentations, posters, infographics, and brochures.  The end products can be viewed through Google Cardboard, Goggles, or using a simple link. This program is designed for K-12 educators, school counselors, and anyone eager to take learners on adventures.
No classes are being offered at this time for this course.
