Teacher: "Good morning! Today, we're diving into virtual worlds not just to play, but to write. You have 3 minutes. Look at the image on the board (a person wearing a VR headset with a surprised expression). On your mini-whiteboards, individually write: 1) The character's name. 2) One sentence on what they just saw/experienced in VR. 3) One real emotion they're feeling. Timer starts... now! (After 3 min) Time's up! Show your boards to your shoulder partner. Find one interesting connection between your ideas."
AI Integration: The teacher uses an AI image generator (like DALL-E or Midjourney) to create a unique, thought-provoking VR scene image to serve as the prompt, ensuring it's original and tailored to spark immediate curiosity. |
Students write individually on their whiteboards. They then share with a partner, discussing similarities or contrasts in their ideas (e.g., "We both thought the character was scared, but you said they saw a monster, I said they got lost."). | Descriptors only (no points): • Student generates a name, a basic VR event, and an emotion. • Student engages in peer discussion by sharing and comparing ideas. |
Interactive whiteboard or projector, AI-generated image prompt, mini-whiteboards, markers, timer. |
