For over two decades virtual reality took a break. Now it’s back and the huge headsets and gloves have been replaced by smaller, lighter ones and work with your smartphone.

What does that mean for education? Well, actually a lot. From virtual field trips to virtual science experiments, classrooms are going to be immersed in educational content.

Low cost headsets can be found for as little as $20. The mobile devices are another thing. Some have said to partner up with companies that collect old phones and see if they would donate to your school.
