Realm 4 encompasses the next evolution of education, building off the existing benefits of technology enhanced education. Previously, education has been scaffolded by online, digital pedagogy. Today, new, emergent technologies foster education that is immersive, exploratory, and increasingly collaborative, with examples including virtual and augmented reality opportunities for group learning. At the two-day Realm 4: Education Through Exploration Summit hosted in November, experience hands-on demonstrations and meet the innovators at ASU who are utilizing diverse, next-generation, and technology-driven strategies for learning in the 21st century and beyond. On Friday, Nov. 18, we welcome the ASU community to the newly launched Media and Immersive Experience (MIX) Center located in the heart of Mesa, AZ, featuring performances, tours and enjoy appetizers under the stars hosted by ASU President, Dr. Michael Crow. Join us Saturday, Nov. 19 on Tempe campus and meet the innovators creating the future of learning while exploring hands-on, immersive demonstrations from contributors like Dreamscape Learn, Interplanetary Initiative, the brand new Zoom Innovation Lab, and more!
