The Youth and Media team provides insight into the benefits and concerns around VR/AR experiences in a new post for the BKC Medium collection.
“As with any other educational technology, the value of XR depends on many contextual factors and will require careful assessment before it is introduced in any learning environment — whether online or in-person,” they write. “However, the technology comes with the promise to provide educators with additional options in terms of remote student engagement, and ways to support and complement efforts to equip youth with the skills to participate and thrive in an increasingly digitally connected economy and society.”
