Virtual Geometry Changes the Game

4/11/2019

0 Comments

 
There are a lot of math concepts that are hard to teach in a traditional classroom. One concept that Benilde-St. Margaret teachers John Groess and Max Johnson identified as a place they could use a virtual environment effective was working with geometric shapes. Teaching about volume, edges, faces, and other three dimentional concepts are tough when teaching tools are build for a 2D world. They worked with REM5 Virtual Reality Laboratory to build a lesson in VR that students worked in teams to complete. When they were done, they used geometric shapes and their new VR skills to create a virtual castle and it's in exploring geometry in a virtual world on their own that the concepts they learned really took hold.

Mr. Groess even got a chance to experience some VR for himself.

Why Seniors Love Virtual Reality

Some of the most impactful work we do at REM5 Virtual Reality is with seniors. This is a story of one night at REM5 that we'll never forget:

This story isn't an isolated experience for us at REM5. For example, a group from TowerLight Senior Living visited recently. We had some skeptical visitors to start, but after a few minutes we found one guest lost in her experience swimming with dolphins and another reminiscing during a virtual tour of the Glensheen Mansion in Duluth, MN. Virtual reality can be a way to transport through space and time and there's no age limit to where the technology can have an impact.
