A journey to Google expeditions

Have you ever heard about Google Glass? Today we've learnt about Virtual Reality (VR). Using Google Glass students can experience the real world and interact with virtual items.

Google Expeditions app allows you to find many 360º scenes and guide the students on virtual trips.

I find Virtual Reality an ideal tool to work on both speaking and listening skills. Students could explain what they see, feel or experience. After that, we could ask them to complete a short test in Google Forms. If you search VR360 on Youtube you can find many videos that allow students to experience VR.

Below, my favourite Google expeditions:

1. Ancient Greece: it can be done in the 1st cycle of ESO as they learn about Greece history
2. Climb a First Ascent with Mike Libecki: to work with students of the 2nd cycle of ESO, where you introduce the topics of effort, strengths and weaknesses, fears and challenges  
3. Christmas Lights of London: to work before Christmas with the students of 1r and 2n ESO 
4. Celebrating America’s Diversity: to work at Batxillerat on the topic of diversity, gender equality, civil rights...
