M4 P5 Schoolu Indigenous Language Learning Program Teaching Indigenous Youth

This is a great example of what is already possible and what can be possible in the near future. There are many ways to use VR for language learning, but one of the most important aspects is for it to be fun. The learners need to be engaged and want to continue to use the method for it to be successful. Being able to immerse children or students of all ages in an interesting environment with engaging activities in the target language can have many positive benefits. I envision incorporating actual place names and accurate landscapes of traditional territories to teach lessons in the target language and connecting the people to the land virtually with periodic visits to the actual place.
