Virtual Tours & Virtual Reality
Explore places, cultures, and perspectives from around the world.
Virtual Tours and Virtual Reality (VR) create shared experiences that deepen learning, spark curiosity, and build understanding. Exploring places, cultures, and perspectives provides the context learners need to make connections and engage more meaningfully with ideas.
Experiences can be guided by the teacher or explored independently by students, depending on your learning goals and the age of your students. Tours can be used as stand‑alone experiences or as part of a broader unit, project, or learning pathway.
Educators use Virtual Tours & Virtual Reality in a variety of ways, including:
- Career and workplace tours that show students where and how people work
- Industry, community, and cultural tours connected to classroom topics
- Exploration experiences that support observation, inquiry, and discussion
- Pre‑ or post‑learning activities paired with lessons, readings, or live expert sessions
Virtual experiences help learning feel visual, tangible, and memorable.

Through virtual exploration, students:
- Visit places they may not otherwise be able to access
- Explore cultures, perspectives, and communities from around the world
