At Quinsigamond Community College, the Center for Academic Excellence has been working with faculty since fall 2022 to bring VR into the classroom. They started with one headset and a paid VR application. However, in the spring of 2023, they raised the funds to purchase 7 additional headsets and created a plan to develop an opensource application for Anatomy & Physiology 1 & 2 students, called Anatomy & Physiology Lab VR. The app was finished in the fall of 2023, and they piloted it with 8 students from A&P 1, 8 students from A&P 2, and 14 students from a radiology technician class. Student and faculty feedback from the pilots was overwhelmingly positive with many students claiming that the app made learning easier and added excitement. In this session, the presenter will discuss the process of developing and piloting the opensource VR application at QCC. In addition, the session will review many challenges and barriers to implementation and early successes observed. Toward the end, we will discuss lessons learned and suggestions for VR adoption on campus and the development of in-house VR apps. To encourage attendee participation, the session will start with a 4 question ZOOM poll. It will also include numerous visuals of equipment and invite ongoing audience participation. At the end, there will be time for questions and audience comments. This session will be of interest to anyone hoping to learn more about VR/XR in education, anyone interested in developing or piloting a VR program on campus, or anyone interested in opensource VR. Part of the session will be somewhat technical, so it is recommended for an intermediate to advanced level participant.
