Classroom● Students and teachers interact with one another

● Usually around 1024 sq. feet, amount varies with schools (Tanner 1)

● Most activities require close interactions

● Necessary features: Whiteboards, computer, desks, lights

● Presentation and discussion based learning

“It’s hard to collaborate with other students when you have assignments to complete but no easy way to interact with others”

“Without the direct teacher-student interaction, my learning ability and productivity has decreased in ways I never thought possible.”

Virtual RealityPlexiglass cube/

trifoldVisor

Non-innovative

Expensive Expensive and equipment

(Ianzito, 1)

Virtual Online Classroom Simulation

Simulation is concern with modeling of real-world problems (Sevgi, 3)

Solutions

Log in screen

Solutions

What the student’s will see and view once they are in the

classroom

Customizable

“Students can gain theoretical knowledge in the classroom but it is only possible to grasp necessary practical knowledge and experiences in the laboratory.” (B. balamuralithara, 1)

Virtual Classroom Zoom Physical classroom

Guaranteed safety with at-home social distancing

Ability to interact together to collaborate on ideas and assignments

Education with models and tools that can enhance learning

(Jefferson, 3)

4. Teach teachers how to use/ control the program3. Refinement of program2. Investors

1. Prototype creation

Engineers

The main purpose is to gather people fromuniversities, industry and governments and enable them work cooperatively [with] efficient and cost-competitivedesigns… (Sevgi, 3)

● Education● Interactive● Attention-

grabbing● Virtual/

Clickable interactions

Innovation

Barriers

Students and teachers can interact while still being safe and can the program can be used

long-term

Ethics: the positives and the negatives

Allows for full interaction and can even make education more

entertaining for students

How will virtual spaces affect the educational classroom setting?
