As virtual reality technology continues to develop, more colleges and universities are integrating it into the student experience inside and outside of the classroom. A recent survey of chief technology officers by Inside Higher Ed and Hanover Research found that 14 percent of respondents said their institutions had made meaningful investments in virtual reality and immersive learning, up seven percentage points from the previous year. Only 32 percent of respondents indicated that virtual reality or immersive learning technology was not in the institution’s short-term plans.
