Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
I teach students with various disabilities including physical and intellectual, autism, and specific chromosomal disorders. My program focuses on developing functional academic skills, activities of daily living, communication, and social needs.
My students are amazing middle schoolers who have a love for learning and can become productive citizens if given the chance to learn new vocational skills and participate in hands-on activities.
The skills learned in my classroom increase their independence and their options for living and working in the community.
My Project
Virtual reality can give my students the opportunity for amazing new adventures that they might never have the chance to experience.
It provides visualizations that aren’t possible In the traditional classroom and lets them explore different realities.
By wearing a VR headset, students who have physical impairments can participate at the same level as their peers, with the same level of involvement that facilitates growth and learning.
Traditional teaching methods are not the most effective way to reach students who must use visualizations to communicate. Many students with autism have connections to the world through pictures, which can limit their interactions and learning. VR will give them the type of experience they need for optimal learning.
VR technology can create amazing experiences that could never be “lived” in the real life. Students will definitely feel more motivated to learn with the use of this technology.
