Rotation Stations for VR/AR self directed learning

So last week I introduced rotation stations in a few classes.

The Stations Presentation -  Phase I
included the following options:


  1. Station Merge Cube (with three options to explore)
  2. Google Expeditions using AR/ VR over 300 Google Expeditions listed in this spreadsheet
  3. 360 images, Street View App and the Thea 360 Camera with the setup to access Google Tour Builder
We set up prior to the week of vacation to use Google Tour Creator.
