flexibility in the proposed roll-out plan. Technology facilitators must consider many options
when collaborating with faculty and administration in the selection of emerging technology tools
and resources. This field experience on emerging technology provided an excellent opportunity
for me to demonstrate my understanding of the selection process and allowed me to develop and
facilitate the collaboration involved in using virtual reality technology for student learning.
The completion of this artifact taught me the importance of accuracy and context in the
recommendation of technology tools and resources----especially those that are newly emerging.
Working in a developing country at a private school with limited funding emphasized the need
for contextual understanding because what may work in one location would certainly fail in
another. In the future I would ensure that I had multiple options for the pilot implementation of
the emerging technology so that various price points could be met in the event of cutbacks. I
would also like to involve the educators and students in the development of the proposal for
emerging technology because I think that has a larger impact on the possibility of getting funded.
This artifact had a positive impact on school improvement, student learning, and
professional development opportunities because it opened a whole new world of learning
activities that are rooted in authentic learning through the use of VR in the classroom. The
proposal inspired stakeholders to provide funding for a pilot project that increased overall
interest in the emerging technology and resources so that future plans for technology integration
were adjusted to include virtual technology devices and applications in the curriculum.
