Public library staff, school librarians and teachers are invited to the South Carolina State Museum for a day of Augmented and Virtual Reality exploration with Jaime Donally. This presentation will cover the following topics:

RediscoVR LeARning - Let's explore the progression of Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality. In this interactive presentation, we'll examine how classroom devices can be used to create immersive learning experiences. The enthusiasm of AR, VR, and MR is growing and the educational benefits are unlimited to personalize learning for all students.

AR & VR Playground - The virtual reality tools shared will focus on the learning experience which immerses the viewer into a new world. The participants will learn about the importance of this trend in education and how it will impact the expectations of learning in the future. During the session, we will explore some of the viewers, cost, and important features needed to properly function with virtual reality. An emphasis on immediate use, modifying personal learning experiences and providing authentic, relevant content will solidify the importance of virtual reality in the classroom.

Living in 360 - Learn the importance of a growing trend in education and how it will impact the expectations of learning in the future. We'll focus on student-created virtual reality projects with personalized learning experiences for our classrooms today. The objective of this virtual reality session is to bring participants from just experiencing VR to creating VR.
