#ICE19 Annual Conference

At Shedd Aquarium, we’ve been exploring the use of video technology to help our learners connect to content, the natural world, and each other. Learners have immersed themselves in 360 videos and felt like they were SCUBA diving among sharks and in our exhibits. Families and

friends were able to feel like they were out in the field with our teen field program participants. Throughout a week-long program, students used video as a story-telling tool to document their experiences, and then shared those stories with their loved ones. These experiences were integrated into our program plans and directly connected to our outcomes. In this participate and share session, come experience these moments for yourself using various VR headsets. We’ll share and demonstrate how you can help your students connect and reflect on their learning with digital tools and how you can use the content they create to evaluate learning outcomes.
