I am a high school literature teacher with a passion for virtual reality. Like most of us, I dreamed about VR since childhood and I can’t wait for the day when virtual reality is brought into a classroom setting.

I can easily imagine transporting my students into a virtual world of classic literature or a historical time period. For instance, my British Literature class reads several of Winston Churchill’s speeches and I believe a much more effective sense of the impending crisis of the Nazi invasion can be achieved in a virtual environment, available now with the Oculus Rift.

Envision cowering in a virtual London flat in 1940, listening to Churchill on the radio as he attempts to comfort the city as the bombs of the Blitz are falling overhead. Or maybe it’s witnessing the sacking of an early medieval monastery by Viking invaders. What about encountering the eruption of Mount Vesuvius from a perspective inside a Roman villa? Perhaps you want to travel far back in time to view the creation of Paleolithic cave paintings.

These are the experiences already available in this current release of Project TimeTravel.
