In addition to games, films, videos and other entertainment experiences, VR headsets also offer interesting opportunities for learning. They can be used at school to teach pupils the material in a more varied way. The self-sufficient Veative VR glasses, which do not require any additional hardware, have now been released. The VR headset has been specially developed for teaching and already offers more than 500 learning modules. Other content is not compatible.
The technical specifications are not particularly impressive, but the device fulfils its purpose. The integrated software platform called "VR Learn" is based on Android. The teaching modules cover subjects such as biology, chemistry, physics, maths and many more. New content will also be added on an ongoing basis. The modules include 3D models, simulations and virtual experiments. An included controller also provides the necessary interaction.
With the associated app, teachers have full control over the content. Teachers can install and uninstall modules and switch off the students' screens. Fortunately, the Google Cardboard app is also supported, which means that you can "Google Expeditions" can use. Another advantage: The software from Veative Labs can analyse and save the students' performance. The price of the VR glasses is USD 250, with an additional subscription that can be customised to the needs of the students. Sample videos are available in the YouTube channel available from Veative.
