This project focuses on building essential human skills, such as empathy, by raising awareness about important diversity issues, like accessibility. This human-powered, technology-enabled program equips students and educators with the tools they need to recognize universal design issues across campus and capture these environments in 360 virtual reality. Part of the process will be recruiting faculty members and students to create videos for use in virtual reality headsets. The videos will offer viewers experiences that teach them to be more empathetic.
