Format: Presentations and discussion
Description: With new technologies and digital devices we have changed our everyday life. We do not use books, now we use e-books, we do not watch how someone is doing something live, we watch the video, children do not play game outside but online, student do not need to travel to participate in a course, they use virtual mobility, difficult and expensive experiments performed in laboratories can be performed easy in virtual laboratories, virtual worlds… these are just few examples how technology can and already has enhanced our lives. Virtual reality enables better realisation of student centred learning, higher quality of teaching and learning, innovativeness and creativeness of teachers and students.
In this session we plan to discuss the importance of the virtual reality for education, benefits and challenges. Our panelists will show best practice and share their experiences. Join us virtually!
