One topic that I found interesting was Virtual Reality in
Job Training. I found this topic interesting because it was very similar to my
own topic. It is also a practical issue that will be used more often in the
future. I did not realize that virtual reality could train doctors for
surgeries allowing them to become familiar with different techniques before
preforming the actual surgery. I believe that learning before preforming is
important because it could lead to fewer mistakes in. I was also shocked by how
many huge companies use virtual reality every day. Advances in technology such
as VR will significantly help the medical world.
Another topic that was interesting was Gamification of
Learning. Using video games as a teaching tool in the education system is
fascinating because it shows how much technology has grown. Video games are
often seen as bad because they are called distracting and a waste of time, but
in this sense they are productive and educational. With technology continuing
to grow, tools such as video games are going to reappear in the educational
system which is why this presentation was relevant and important. I believe it is also vital that we incorporate
things that kids enjoy into learning to make them interesting for kids to
learn, which is why video games are great tools for education.
Overall, I believe that the essay exhibit was a good way to
get our peers opinions about our projects. Getting feedback on your work is
always beneficial, and the exhibit made it more fun than just doing a peer
review. It is also interesting to see what others papers are on and learn about
topics that interest them. The essay exhibit had a positive impact on my final
essay.
