Yesterday our Language Arts class experienced Virtual Reality with Google Expedition. We are learning about careers during this module, and many students are curious to learn more about veterinarians. Using goggles, each student was “transported” to spend a day with veterinarian Emily Jones. Emily makes visits to farms and sees animals at her veterinary practice. We viewed scenes of Emily visiting sheep at a farm, welcoming an owner in her waiting room, caring for a rabbit’s teeth, de-horning a goat kit, and performing surgery on a dog. The students were fascinated with their ability to “look around” each of these locations. Our Virtual Reality experience gave students the chance to “see” some of what we’ve been reading in books and articles about veterinarians.
