[CASL-L] anyone using VR?

[Palazzolo Wicks, Katrina]

CASL, Windsor Public Schools just purchased VR kits this fall from Best
Buy. We want to use Google Expeditions with our students.
The staff members who are spearheading this are our two fantastic district
technology teachers, Rebecca Zenczak and Steve Rodonis.

If anyone in this list wants to come observe an introduction to VR and
training for staff, here are two times:

   - Thursday, Feb. 2 from 4:00-5:00 pm in Windsor High School Library, 50
   Sage Park Road, Windsor, CT 06095 (This is with our Tech Early Adopters
   Teachers Group)
   - Tuesday, Feb. 21 from 8:00 am to 11:00 am in Windsor High School
   Library, 50 Sage Park Road, Windsor, CT 06095 (This is with staff who
   signed up for this Professional Development session during our choice PD)

Please email Rebecca Zenczak rzenczak at windsorct.org to let her know that
you'd like to come observe. (We will not have extra VR kits to try during
the training, but you can come and learn, ask questions, and get
information).

We are very excited to share what we've learned with other colleagues.
