Virtual Reality with K-12

 Monday December 1, 2025

    In today's society, technology is transforming all around us. I researched virtual reality with grades K-12 and looked at the importance of how it affects studies. 

    There are many ideas that help students and teachers with VR. First, the article I read stated VR breaks down barriers that provides access to learning experiences and allows for hands on experiences. VR also allows students to learn about different places around the world such as tours! 

    Nearpod is a great source to use for this blog. It gives tips and why VR benefits students, while allowing them to see places in a 360 view. I really like this idea of virtual reality in any classroom because while it is informative and educational, it is also fun for students to just be proactive in the classroom. If I had the chance to do this in a class, I would. We also looked into it in our web tools class and I toured the White House and really liked that experience. 

    Overall, virtual reality is the best thing for students to learn and engage with teachers and educators. This opens up conversation between the classroom and what they learned and how it can help them in the future!
