Co-hosted by U.S. Commercial Service Seattle and the University of Washington Global Business Center Teaching IB In Virtual Reality Friday, September 16, 2022 at 10 AM PDT Basic VR technology has existed for a long time, and more recent advances have made it more accessible and user friendly to create and deliver content. Earlier this summer, the Fox School of Business harnessed this technology and incorporated virtual reality into one of its graduate courses. Dr. Bertrand Guillotin, associate professor of management and academic director of the undergraduate IB program, piloted a virtual reality course titled Disruptions and Strategic Responses. Read more about the experience here. Please join us as Dr. Guillotin presents best practices and leads a discussion on the possibilities of teaching IB using VR for international business students. This is a great opportunity to learn more about how instructors can apply new technology into existing instructional methods.
