New for 2023, NC VR Adventures takes engagement, literacy and content connections to the next level! Create student-centered, immersive learning experiences using virtual reality. No fancy headset required! With smartphones and easily accessible digital tools, participants will design a standards-aligned activity specifically for your learners. Along with navigating the tools, we will also explore instructional strategies that make learning stick, like PBL, storytelling & visual thinking. You'll leave with a fully developed VR activity ready to share with your learners and the capacity to build more in the future with your students.

This program includes a field trip to collect digital artifacts for your project.
