A Scalable Technological Platform to Facilitate Group Learning Environments through Virtual Reality and 360 Video
Developing a Scalable Technological Platform to Facilitate Group Learning Environments through Virtual Reality and 360 Video for "ANTH 5475: Multimodal Interaction" and Beyond for "ANTH 5475: Multimodal Interaction" and Beyond
This project will build and test an interactive technological platform where a class can use virtual reality headsets to simultaneously inhabit a 360" video to create an interactive VR learning space for discussions. The software technology this project develops will immediately be put to use in ANTH5475, which teaches video analysis to UVA graduate and undergraduate students. It will also have application to the learning environments of UVA labs and advising meetings, and is intended to be scalable and shareable as a UVA Resource that supports enhanced classroom learning beyond UVA.
