How far outside the box are you willing to take your classroom? How about far enough that you enter a virtual world, where your students use their own avatar to manipulate the concepts you’re teaching. This is what Jennifer Brown does in her math classroom. She uses a curriculum developed by Prisms of Reality (link to their website below) to teach her students about algebra. This requires wearing a headset and “leaving” the room to enter a virtual space. Would you be willing to let your students do this? To discover and control their environment in order to learn and gain mastery over graphs and equations? This is a bold move, but I predict that this is one of many, many more classrooms that will be teaching this way. They say that cell phones of the 2000s and the advent of the smart phone will be as VR goggles will be as we move through this decade into the 2030s. Hold on teachers, it’s going to get wild and sooner than later!
