Coffee and snacks provided.

As part of the CTE Reading Week Professional Learning series in collaboration with Elixr, Eon and the CUE Innovation HUB, this full day workshop offers CUE instructors the opportunity to find, use and integrate Eon AR & VR resources in their courses. This workshop will teach you how to use Eon resources, how to integrate it into Moodle and how to augment your current course practices. 

As  Reg Joseph, Chief Executive Officer, Health Cities suggests, 

“This is an exciting time for the world of immersive technologies, and ELIXR is leading the way. By partnering ELIXR’s member post-secondary institutions in Alberta with EON Reality’s powerful XR platform, we can provide access to world-leading tools and content for our talented students and content generators throughout the province. This access will support our next generation of innovators, as well as economic development here in the region.”

The workshop will review how to use XR resources in your class and how XR is currently used in the field and workplace. By accessing the Eon online libraries, participants will then experience first hand how to find and integrate the resources into their courses. Finally, the workshop will support instructors in aligning their course learning outcomes and class learning lessons with Eon resources.
