Using Virtual Reality to Improve Student’s Job Interviewing Skills - The Tech Edvocate | iPads, MakerEd and More  in Education | Scoop.it
One of the most exciting emerging technologies is virtual reality: whether you are walking through an art museum thousands of miles from your home or swooping down into a volcano, VR promises amazing experiences to its users. One potential area of VR use that is just beginning to merit some attention is using VR to prepare students for job interviews. Given how important an interview can be—and how little experience students have with them—it is no surprise that a job interview can turn into a stressful or unpleasant situation that does not feature a student at his or her best. VR is one potentially powerful tool that can change this dynamic and allow students to shine.
