I chose to research the Veative virtual reality system. This headset is already pre-loaded with content for learning purposes and the students have access to over 550 modules. This is meant for grades as low as third and can go all the way up to college students. There is a voice control option for children who have issues reading and there is a one controller option for children with fine motor skill issues. Veative is inclusive for students with special needs because it allows children to learn at their own pace without feeling overwhelmed. Virtual reality increases differentiated instruction and motivation in the classroom. When children see the virtual reality headset it gets them excited to learn because it is something new, rather than reading from a textbook. This device gives students opportunities to explore if they cannot physically go where they want to. With virtual reality students have the ability to take virtual field trips and there are no limits to where they can go. This is a great feature because since Covid with the lockdowns, it still allows students to get the learning experiences of life. Virtual reality is great with helping students develop computer skills and gets them comfortable with their use of technology skills. Below I have included a video on how a teacher uses virtual reality in her classroom.
