Virtual reality can be utilized as an amazing tool in the classroom. As a history teacher, I would have my students look at locations we’d been learning about in virtual reality. For example, below is a 360 degree video found on YouTube showcasing the major landmarks in Rome.

There are other resources than just YouTube for VR in the classroom though. ClassVR is a resource specifically for using VR in the classroom. Here is a link to their history resources: https://www.classvr.com/vr-ar-resources/history-vr-teaching-resources/. They offer 30 minute free demos that you can try out in your classroom. Overall, virtual reality can be used as a great resource for history teachers to help give students a real visual of what they are learning in class.
