Extended Reality (XR) As A Tool for Impactful and Engaged Learning

Digital technologies are being integrated into all sectors of our society, including how we work, how we learn, and how we play. One digital technology being used today is extended reality (XR), which includes virtual (VR), augmented (AR) and mixed realities (MR).

What sets XR apart is that it can be immersive and it can mimic real world scenarios. Furthermore, XR can be and should be a tool in every educator’s toolbox.
