Toledo Tech Events

The real world is not flat after all, so why constrain our classrooms to experience the digital world on a flat screen? The shift from 2D to 3D is as natural as adding color to movies and television was in the 1950’s. In many ways, it is even more impactful. Virtual and Augmented Reality is changing education. What started out as something that was simply “cool” has become a way to engage learners like never before. Join us to experience ten different virtual reality classroom activities including an Oculus Rift and HoloLens!

The speaker: Corinne Hoisington is a full-time professor of Information Systems Technology at Central Virginia Community College in Lynchburg, Virginia, with more than 25 years of teaching experience.
