Integrating virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers
Abstract VR environments offer opportunities for novel science learning experiences. This article discusses how we integrated virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers. We explore the affordances of VR for enhancing science education and its potential applications in secondary level classrooms. Specifically, we describe
