Experiencia en realidad virtual
"Developing technologies have a long and varied history in teaching and learning. Many technologies that were touted as revolutionary eventually fell to the wayside in favor of more traditional, less technologically sophisticated modes of education. VR technology is being applied in many ways across multiple domains, such as science and mathematics, and across varied educational levels. This project represents a collaboration between several Elizabethtown College departments and the North Museum of Nature and Science. Our project focuses on the process of constructing an early childhood/elementary level science curriculum utilizing user-produced VR images." - Celia Martone
