Tim Jackson's journey with VR started only 18 months ago. Having taught hundreds of game design students, he knows what are keys to success (in #VR #AR) and which companies are currently hiring for which roles!
His first taste of VR made a profound impact on him and left him with a clear vision of why VR/AR is the next career step to take for any game design student!
He has also been teaching his students on three different courses (college and university level) fully in VR, with support materials, tutorials and assignments, and feedback – and can give you insights on what you need to learn and teach in VR.
💡 Key Takeaways:
- The main platform he uses for VR
- How students cope with VR
- How VR is great for his student's mental health
- Examples of what he does in VR
