Digital Commons working groups are intended for members of Vanderbilt's community interested in meeting over time to develop deeper understandings and richer practices around particular technologies, tools, and practices. See below for information on our current working groups.
Virtual/Augmented Reality
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are becoming more ever-present and integrated into the fabric of our lives day-to-day. In this group, we intend to explore some of the opportunities to incorporate these tools into your scholarship or teaching. Whether it is collaborating across discipline on projects that can expand the technical and application skills of your students while allowing their creative side to show, or a means of getting feedback on ideas you have had for using a VR/AR space for your research lab/team, this is the place for you. This group will be a hub for faculty and others interested in VR/AR at all levels, from never having worked with the topics to regularly integrating it into your research and teaching. The group will meet once a month, and each month invites new interested parties to join meetings either on a regular basis or when the topic being discussed that day seems useful. The meetings will be held either remotely through Zoom or in the Digital Commons building (1101 19th Ave S.) and will last around an hour.
