SUMMARY:VR in Science & Education
DESCRIPTION:This talk will feature how I created Virtual Reality simulations of dinosaurs and their ecosystems using the Unity 3D game engine for the Virginia Museum of Natural History’s dinosaur festivals and for students at Franklin County High School in Virginia. The simulations were very popular with k12 students\, and parents were supportive of my efforts. The latest results showed that families increased their knowledge of dinosaurs by 32% by using the VR simulations. A Jurassic simulation was done in 2023\, a Late Cretaceous one in 2024\, and a Triassic simulation is planned for 2025. \nBy Dr. William Schmachtenberg Ph.D.
