I had heard about VR being used in the classroom but didn't think I'd ever try it. I actually got a VR headset （耳机） as a New Year present from my friend and started searching for apps online to see whether it could be useful in my classroom. I soon found a free app through Google Cardboard and knew I had a lesson!
To use VR in the classroom, you need two things：a smartphone that can download the app or video, and a headset. To find the actual videos we'd be watching, I searched through free VR apps like Orbulus, Trench Experience VR and Cardboard. I also found hundreds of videos on YouTube. The key is to find videos made with the 360 cameras. While they don't give the kids a 3-D experience like the apps,theyare still amazingly immersive （沉浸式虚拟现实的） when viewed through the headsets.
So far we've had three lessons. I first used the headsets with my seventh grade U. S. History class. The Trench app allows students to "walk" through a trench （战壕） during World War I and learn about many of the tools used during that time. My second activity was working with the sixth grade Geography class. They used the headsets strictly as viewers to watch a 360 video taking them through a rocky landscape. My final activity was the most interesting one, according to the reactions （反应） of my eighth grade Civics students. I was able to find a White House 360 tour that was made a few years ago.
For the rest of this year, I plan to continue using apps and 360 videos in my classes. Next year I'm going to write to my boss asking for a 360 video camera so that I can begin to create my own VR field trips for the students.
