Gamification Training Webinars

SUMMARY

Nowadays, teaching and training face new challenges as the audience is less self-disciplined, living in overwhelming environments and losing attention and/or interest very quickly. Our job, as educators and trainers is to address these challenges. Affordable virtual reality can help make learning more fun and engaging, enabling some experiences such as visiting a factory or a museum. In this tutorial, participants will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with Virtual Reality (VR) tools for teaching and learning. There are two kinds of virtual reality: 360 pictures and videos, i.e., the spherical approach, and the 3D simulations, i.e., the video game-like approach. The tutorial focuses on the first one, which is affordable and can support our quick shift to digital. The participants will have a detailed experience creating a VR learning tour using low-cost technologies.
