Immersive Technologies: Redefining Learning Experiences
In virtual reality, you are immersed in a completely constructed world. With augmented reality or mixed reality, you can see the real world around you, enhanced by digital objects overlaid in your field of view. This technology can be very helpful for just-in-time learning, accessing real-time information, and practicing in a real environment.
This is an exciting time for immersive technology in the industry due to advancements in hardware, software, and digital learning tools.
Join Performance Matters podcast host Michael Thiel as he interviews two of GP Strategies’ foremost thought leaders in learning technologies: Tom Pizer, Senior Director of Learning Technologies, and Rich Calcutt, EMEA Director of Consulting and Learning Experience. They step into the virtual reality world to play Golf+ and discuss current trends, developments in immersive learning technologies, and the opportunities organizations can harness in this field.
