Virtual reality and augmented reality have many applications in higher education. VR can provide immersive experiences that allow students to interact with simulations as if they were in the real world. This helps students develop skills through repeated practice of hands-on activities that may not otherwise be possible. Examples highlighted include using VR to explore religious sites in India, experience bird flight, and practice medical procedures. AR also enables interactive learning through simulations and overlaying data on real-world objects. Overall, these technologies make experiential learning scalable while developing important skills like communication, collaboration, and systems thinking.
