This webinar, organised withing MLA’s Immersive Learning SIG, brings research and practice together to explore how XR can be used meaningfully and responsibly in higher education. We try to answer questions such as ‘When does XR add real pedagogical value, and when is it just novelty? Who gets access, and who is left out? ‘ What happens to the data headsets collect, and how do we protect student wellbeing?
