As much as I appreciated this article for how it addresses the benefits of an avatar with virtual reality learning, I mostly appreciated the real-world support VR could offer-including virtual reality field trips. Discovery Education and Google Expeditions seem to be frontrunners for virtual reality field trips. However, I would also like to support my students in creating their own virtual reality locales/research sites.
All the best,
