Virtual Reality Indigenous Programming: A New Educational Wave in Orillia Schools

Georgian College Partnerships Integrate Indigenous VR Learning

Georgian College has recently formed partnerships with the Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB) and the Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies to integrate virtual reality (VR) technology into the curriculum. These partnerships aim to provide students in Ontario and Saskatchewan with the opportunity to explore Indigenous language and cultures through immersive learning experiences. By signing memorandums of alliance with Georgian College, the SCDSB, and the Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies will allow their students access to the college’s VR worlds, which delve into various aspects of Indigenous language and culture.
