Enhance Learning with Virtual Reality
Whether as an educational institute or employer, the transfer of knowledge is an important component in many areas, in which it is important to always keep it as simple and effective as possible. By using VR education, these processes can be optimized significantly. In VR, students or trainees can not only completely immerse themselves in educational content but even actively interact with it. This results in steeper learning curves and ultimately enhanced learning results.
How VR is already applied in education and trainingprograms
Here are some examples below of the incredible capabilities of VR in education and training programs, .
Police academy used VR for Training
The Dutch police academy was looking for a way to train their force for forensic investigation. VROwl developed a Virtual Reality training program for them which can be customized for different scenarios and locations. This simulation allows them to train at a safe location without the risk of influencing a real case.
Southborough Primary school using VR in classes
This primary school wanted to use virtual reality to enhance their learning proposition. They use vr to enhance the reading experience of their students by letting them step in to the world of the pages they are reading. This way they can absorb the learning material faster and remember more of it!
"The Blue Mind uses VR to immersive students into the sea without getting wet
The Blue Mind found that virtual reality immersion opens students' minds to the threats our oceans face. By engaging learners in multi-sensory learning, The Blue Mind can effectively address the three UN Sustainable Development Goals and bring attention to our struggling oceans."
