In collaboration with StadinAO, we recently conducted a unique lesson that combined traditional and innovative approaches to education. Here’s how we structured the experience:
- Traditional Meets Innovative
We believe that traditional teaching methods remain fundamental, but integrating innovations can enhance the learning process. During the lesson, we combined classic instructional methods with VR technology, showing that these approaches can go hand-in-hand for a more engaging and effective learning experience. - Safety First
With a sufficient number of VR headsets, we were able to involve multiple students simultaneously. To ensure safety, we designated specific areas for VR activities and assigned a supervisor to monitor each student in the virtual environment. This setup allowed us to maintain a safe and controlled learning atmosphere. - Feedback for Research
During the lesson, we collected feedback from participants, which is being used in our ongoing research on the effectiveness of VR in education. This research aims to provide valuable insights into how XR technology can complement and improve traditional learning methods. - Positive Engagement
The students showed great interest in the XR technology and expressed a willingness to continue learning with these tools. We are already preparing the second part of the lesson and look forward to continuing with this group soon.
This lesson demonstrated how innovation and tradition can coexist, creating a more dynamic and impactful educational experience. Stay tuned for updates as we develop and refine our approach to teaching with XR technologies!
