Popis: | This article explores pre-service teachers' personal experiences as they implemented immersive virtual reality using Google Expedition during a summer STEM camp for primary students. The research is situated around semi-structured interviews conducted to determine how pre-service teachers view their experiences using Google Expedition in primary classrooms, and the pedagogical challenges they encountered during this process. The semi-structured interviews provided insight into the planning, the pedagogical applications, and the obstacles or challenges they encountered during the planning stage and execution of their lesson using a highly interactive, three-dimensional tool such as Google Expedition. The data indicated that pre-service teachers had confidence in implementing virtual reality lessons in the class and considered it a new horizon for teaching. Yet, it also identified pedagogical challenges associated with implementing virtual reality in a primary classroom. |
