Virtual Reality in the classroom through Google Expeditions

The Virtual Reality that I see used for my class would be covered under Google Expeditions. When you go onto that website, you are welcomed with this website https://sites.google.com/tcsnc.org/tcs-g-expeditions/home. 

The overview listed on the left side details the information they have made available for educational purposes. This website is immersive, experimental, multisensory, engaging, and versatile. This application also builds a student’s form of empathy, and students have the chance to become creators of their own VR content. You can create your own VR tour and view objects in real life. 

The lesson we want to expose our students to is how we can help a cleaner future for our world. Teachers can make lesson plans about this on the website for more detailed information, which can be shared by sharing the link. Teachers can make students area of the environment we live in and how what we do affects all living things. For students who create VR, they could add camera usage. You can share what you have made. 

Warning: VR Sets should only be used by children seven years of age or grade 3 and higher. If you have a history of epilepsy, you should use this device.

When you click on this website, you make your way over to solutions at the top, click on this and go to Class VR. Scroll down till you get to the video on the right; if you click on this, you will find the directions to connect with the teacher through the WIFI., which are active or have a poor battery supply. When the teacher sees the images they would like to share, you can simultaneously send them to all students. Click on the image to draw their attention to the picture everyone is viewing. Because you are the teacher, you can see what all the students and support staff see.
