==== Have you used virtual reality in your classroom? Well if you’re ready to take it to the next level you’ll want to check out the interactive 3D content from [|Lifeliqe]. Teachers can use augmented reality with Lifeliqe – every single one of their 1,000 models has an AR view, where you can either capture the model in the environment, or swap the camera and take a selfie or interact with the model yourself. With this tool, teachers can now integrate three-dimensional models in a digital format instead of the two-dimensional images students are used to seeing in traditional textbooks. ====

CoSpaces - @https://cospaces.io/
CoSpaces is a free virtual reality creator tool that makes it possible to create virtual reality content yourself or let students create it. One reason I’m so excited about CoSpaces is because it combines content creation and content consumption.

====**Timelooper - Free time travel App for IOS and Android devices allows users to experience key moments in history.** ==== ==== All that is required is a smartphone and a cardboard headset. For example, someone visiting the Tower of London, the historic castle on the banks of London’s Thames River, can do more than catch a glimpse of the royal family’s crown jewels. The Timelooper app allows the visitor to experience the tower more than 750 years ago, in 1255. Instead of seeing a busy London tourist site, the visitor sees a medieval marketplace and a formidable fortress. Viewers can even see an elephant being led down a path. The smartphone’s built-in motion detection allows time travelers wearing a cardboard headset to move their gaze around the virtual world. Users can also relive unforgettable moments in history in New York, such as George Washington’s inauguration speech in Federal Hall in 1793, the building of the Empire State in 1931, the VJ kiss in Times Square in 1945, and the John Lennon Memorial in 1980. The videos are location-based, so visitors must visit the sites to unlock the historical experiences. ====

[|**Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History**]
 This comprehensive virtual tour allows visitors using a desktop computer (Windows, Mac, Linux) or a mobile device (iPhone, iPad, Android) to take a virtual, self-guided, room-by-room walking tour of the whole museum. You can even browse a list of past exhibits, which is included on the ground floor map (see upper right map buttons).

[|Arctic Tour]  Free to the entire K-12 community, our programming use the allure of exciting Arctic dogsled expeditions and Arctic research as the vehicle through which K-12 teachers and students gain an understanding of natural and social sciences while we experience the cultures of the Arctic.
