There is so much hype surrounding VR in education nowadays, it seems particularly wise to stop and do a reality check, at least once in a great while. [Enticing]
Although I am personally quite
bullish on VR, this will not be another one of those cheerleading series about the potential of VR in education. [Amazing]
No, what I am about to report may prove downright depressing. [Inspiring]
Thus, in order to keep our blog readers
from falling off the feared precipice of despair, I have deliberately embedded
words of hope throughout this series, as seen in the very first paragraph above, in
[bracketed italics].
These are expressions that literally shout the promise and potential of virtual
reality, while counterbalancing the bad news. [Elevating]
These words are not just taken magically from the air, but consist of actual text snatched
from the VR-related exhibit hall booths and sales literature at a recent
ed-tech conference, ‘designer’ phraseology that help sell VR to tech-hungry
educators. [Engaging]
Our in depth reality check begins next week!
