Conference Talks presented by me
Exploring the Impact of using Social Virtual Reality and Videos as Pre-Laboratory Preparation on Student Confidence and Interest
Last year I introduced ConVRse, a Virtual Reality Social platform and discussed its possible use cases for physics education and higher education. This academic year for my master’s research I used ConVRse to investigate if students engaging in VR and video pre-lab material prior to laboratories affects their confidence and interest in the laboratory.

Teaching Physics Using Social Collaborative Virtual Reality Environments
Using social virtual reality in teaching physics, engaging students, and running virtual laboratories is a generally unexplored area. This is because making a VR social platform is a time-consuming task, and currently available VR social platforms are not ideal. This is why I have developed ConVRse: a VR social platform which will be ideal for exploring the social VR physics education space. This technology offers the ability for students to collaboratively work together in a virtual environment. Read More…
