My Take
This teaching tool is a great way to show the children what it would be like on Mount Everest or in the forest. It gives them a whole new perceptive that can't be gained while just talking or showing pictures of the place.
How I Use It
This is an interaction way for you to advance your teaching about the world around the students. The children really enjoy this tool because they are able to virtually explore many different places that they are learning or want to learn about in the classroom.

Azores with STC. Excellent organisation of the trip and delivery on site
Fab - no complaints. Although students did not get to go whale watching they are mature enough to realise that weather conditions are important!

Awesome tool! I loved it!
I loved it! It was very engaging and unique. It allowed students to explore new places without ever leaving their seats. The teacher was able to lead the expeditions or the teacher could have a student lead the expedition. I really liked this because it let students have the choice of exploring what they want. I also loved all the different options! There were coves to discover, old buildings, the human body, etc. It really encompassed everyones interests and kept everyone engaged. The only thing I did not like about it was it caused motion sickness. I was not the only one to experience it but I am sure that is just a common side effect of virtual reality.
