Description
A virtual reality workplace platform is being tested with co-op students at the Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business in the BETS and Enterprise Co-op (Eco-op) programs. The workplace has common virtual areas for casual and structured collaborations for individuals and groups using private classrooms and multiple meeting rooms. This tool, VirBELA allows for regularly 1-1 sessions with the BETS and Eco-op Coordinators, and presentations and reports displayed on shared screens. Virtual workshop sessions are feasible, community engagement and collaboration opportunities are supported.
