Today, we’re excited to announce our new video series for educators, the XR Boot Camp series. These videos will provide a foundation of knowledge about the current state of XR technology and their implications in education.

Our first video, Virtual Reality (VR) Essentials, looks into the company Oculus, who is leveraging the social media savvy from parent company Facebook to create incredible shared VR experiences.

In this video, we discuss the first three headsets offered by this company, and explore three overarching experiences great for use in the classroom. They are: 360 Video, Passive Immersion, and Aphysical CoPresence. Anxious to learn more? Hop on in to the video!

Hi, I’m Collin Poseley, the founder of DeepWoods Expedition Company. At DeepWoods, we’re committed to highlighting educational uses of emerging virtual and augmented technologies, so you can enhance the experience of learning.

As an educator since 2004, I realize just how difficult it can be to engage students a world where attention is commodified and fleeting. So many schools use the same stale worksheets and tired traditional academic learning tactics that have been in use for decades. The result is lacklaster educational experiences for teachers and students which produce limited results. It’s time our educational system levels up.

In 2019, the unimagined is now possible. Text books seem archaic when contrasted with the experiences being delivered on VR headsets. Dive beneath the surface of the human body, or witness celestial bodies up close. Take a trip into space, or to the other side of globe. With virtual reality experiences now readily available, now is the time to immerse learners.

So join me, as I embark on a journey deep into the possibilities of spatial computing and immersive new extended reality technology. Where digital collaboration is being rewritten and redefined.

This channel offers in depth discussion of the latest and well established XR apps focusing on how they might enhance learning experiences both in the classroom or the family room.

These posts are intended for explorers of all ages, for those seeking to teach or learn standards based content easily and with confidence. Those seeking adventure, or those seeking knowledge have a home here.

I’d like to welcome you to the exciting world of Extended Reality and DeepWoods Expedition Company, where experience is reality.
