Q1: Did you know there are roughly 740 virtual field trips available through Google Expeditions? https://t.co/7ibvHodu0E What is your favorite virtual field trip? With Expeditions Creator around the corner what virtual field trip would you create? #ARVRinEDU #CUE18 #cuechat
gderry Feb 28 @ 9:06 PM EST

A1 #ARVRinEDU Fav is the space station, I would get students creating for assessment or to show understanding. i.e. we currently have students making expeditions on Malaysian landmarks using https://t.co/h9ffKRKqzi

That is amazing! Are there more experiences you plan for the students to create? #ARVRinEDU

That is amazing! Have you signed up for Expeditions Creator?? #ARVRinEDU

CrazySciTeach Feb 28 @ 9:08 PM EST

A1: Really enjoy the space station, which then leads to a great engineering project about how things need to be made to work in a zero gravity environment. Really want my students to be able to make expeditions as part of our ecology unit #ARVRinEDU #cue18 #cuechat

I’m ashamed to say I’ve only been on demos in #GoogleExpeditions but would love to hear how others use it. #ARVRinEdu

Q2: The Cal Dept of Parks & Rec has online resources for teachers. https://t.co/Eg4wsXKKWg You can even skype with Park Rangers. They're also creating virtual field trips. What California Natural Resource would you like to see in a virtual field trip? #ARVRinEDU #CUE18 #cuechat

I’d love to see 360 video included in content. Wouldn’t it be awesome to upload our own 360 video content and add info/questions #ARVRinEDU
In reply to @stevensato
stevensato Feb 28 @ 9:13 PM EST

Hey David, is your whole school 1:1? If so, what devices? #ARVRinEDU

CrazySciTeach Feb 28 @ 9:13 PM EST

A2: I didn't know that, that is so awesome! most of my students are lower income so they don't get to travel to these places. Would love some Death Valley trips that show the difference between dry season and wet season and when the flowers bloom #ARVRinEDU
stevensato Feb 28 @ 9:14 PM EST

Agreed, the more we can interact with the experiences the more the students will retain, IMHO. #ARVRinEDU

A3: I know I'd love to see #VR used to maintain exhibits that get taken down. A sort of repository for those who could not otherwise make it to the live showcase. #ARVRinEDU

A3: amazing way to see paintings and art installations in places you can't get to and also for it to be an immersive experience as opposed to just seeing it on a screen #ARVRinEDU
DavidJLockett Feb 28 @ 9:22 PM EST

A4. Wow! Definitely pushes the creativity envelope. #ARVRinEDU
JaimeDonally - Moderator Feb 28 @ 9:22 PM EST

A3 I’d like to see more collaborative creation tools that’s multi platform. Is that too much to ask LOL #ARVRinEDU
DavidJLockett Feb 28 @ 9:22 PM EST

A4. Creativity and realism definitely a plus for 21st century learning. #ARVRinEDU

JaimeDonally - Moderator Feb 28 @ 9:23 PM EST

Absolutely! If we can’t do anything but look, then it’s not a tool we need in the classroom! #ARVRinEDU
In reply to @DavidJLockett
stevensato Feb 28 @ 9:24 PM EST
A4: Gotta say I'd love to see a #VR short film showcasing the life of an educator. What better way to experience what teachers go through than to see it through their eyes their "wonder" and "discovery" feelings when they see their pupils light up. #ARVRinEDU

Great question. On all levels I would say: - start small - focus on storyboarding, design and storytelling - embed VR within a larger concept/challenge #ARVRinEDU

I agree when we initially did it, it wasn't that robust of a library. We now use it almost exclusively on iPads vs. in mobile #VR. #ARVRinEDU

A3: I believe that we, as educators, have a responsibility to develop international-mindedness in our students. Would love to see cultural exhibits that support this endeavour. #VR is uniquely suited for cultivating empathy & perspective. #arvrinedu
alexrajohnson Feb 28 @ 9:59 PM EST

A2: Here are some that would be powerful exps for my ss since we live in #Mumbai (sprawling urban environment). Ss don't have an innate appreciation for #nature: Gen. Grant & Sherman / Tahoe / Slot Canyon / Amazing caves & beaches. Do these exist? #arvrinedu #CUE18 #cuechat #VR
