The Virtual Reality Learning Initiative (VRLI) is a University-wide initiative where professors across various disciplines use VR, and in some instances, AR, to enhance the learning experience. Ongoing research measures the impact on learning and evaluates the efficacy of these programs. As the initiative evolves, we will continue to expand the areas and list of classes where experiential learning through VR and AR technologies is utilized. With over 40 courses using XR, reaching nearly 1,000 students to date, we continue to grow and are moving toward a tipping point where immersive technologies become the norm as an educational practice.
