Question 1

What is VR in education and how does it help students in Australia?

Accepted Answer

VR in education uses immersive virtual reality experiences to help students explore places, concepts, environments, and scenarios that may be difficult, expensive, unsafe, or impossible to access in a traditional classroom. In Australian schools, VR can support curriculum-aligned learning by making lessons more engaging, visual, and interactive.

VR helps students build understanding through experience. They can investigate real-world topics, explore 360° environments, practise digital skills, collaborate on projects, and create their own immersive content. When used with clear learning goals, VR can support curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, communication, and deeper engagement across subjects such as Science, Geography, History, English, STEM, sustainability, and digital technologies.

Question 2

Which VR platform allows students to create content?

Accepted Answer

Students can create their own immersive VR content using eVR Classroom, edgedVR’s education platform for student-led 360° projects. The platform supports students to build, design, and share virtual experiences connected to classroom learning, including storytelling, STEM, geography, history, sustainability, and cross-curricular projects.

Question 3

What do we need to run VR at our school?

Accepted Answer

edgedVR solution runs on an avarage PC, Laptops and VR standalone devices.   Most importantly, we do an initial audit of equipment you already have.  Some schools already have VR headsets or even 360 Camara's.  If you have no equipment, we can supply this.

Question 4

How long does a typical lesson take?

Accepted Answer

Lessons fit in with your timetable and teacher pedagogy.  Many teachers set up in groups depending on the amount of VR headsets.  When students are creating content, teachers can run PBL and other VR programs across the term.

Question 5

How does assessment work?

Accepted Answer

You assess what students create and how they explain it - exactly like assessing a presentation or project. Student artefacts are saved and can be reviewed, annotated or used for portfolio evidence. The explanation component reveals depth of understanding better than multiple choice.

Question 6

Is it safe and age appropriate?

Accepted Answer

edgedVR is fully compliant with e-Safety commission for educations. Students work in controlled creative environments, not open web browsing. Content is curriculum-focused and teachers maintain the same supervision and behaviour management as any classroom activity. VR sessions are timeboxed to avoid extended wear with age appropriate VR headsets.

Question 7

What about privacy/student accounts?

Accepted Answer

Student data and creations stay within your school's controlled environment. We don't harvest student information for marketing or sell data. Account setup follows standard school privacy requirements and can integrate with existing student management systems where needed.  No student email required.

Question 8

What support do teachers get?

Accepted Answer

Practical onboarding that shows you how to run a lesson, not just how to click buttons. Ongoing support when you hit a snag. Curriculum-aligned lesson prompts and task templates so you're not creating everything from scratch. Access to other teachers using it who can share what works.
