On April 14, 2025, TALIC hosted the seminar “Extending the Classroom: Teaching with Virtual Reality in Higher Education” at HKU, featuring Prof. Peter J. Cobb from the Faculty of Arts and facilitated by Prof. Lillian Luk.
Drawing on pedagogical research and VR-based archaeology teaching, Prof. Cobb shared how immersive technologies can boost students’ engagement, enhance spatial and visual learning, and simulate fieldwork experiences—especially through 3D reconstructions of ancient sites.
Participants discussed VR’s educational value, including its potential across disciplines, and had the chance to try out VR headsets in action. The seminar also addressed real-world challenges like cost and accessibility.

In the latest episode of The #HigherEdTech Podcast, Tim & I dive into understanding what the #Canvas Trust is. It's a little in the weeds, so we tried to demystify how this back end process affects front-end users in multi-college institutions like the #CaliforniaCommunityColleges. We hope it serves you well!

Had a bit of a scare in the midst of patches where the new web app, which had been coming up fine earlier in the day during prep work, was giving a 500 error after the final port rebind.
Luckily figured out that something and quirked out with IIS when applying one of the url rewrite rules. Deleted and rebuilt the rule and all was well.
Now on to the weekend.
Happy New Year! For our first episode in 2023, we're talking about #Canvas Hidden Gems and 2023 #Education #Conferences on the #HigherEdTech Podcast 🎧 We hope it serves you well!
