All In on Selling Out

Collage time. I took an image from the most recent Wired politics issue from a Steven Levy article about the decidedly traitorous Silicon Valley denizens whom people like me used to look up to and thought were disruptors and fearless resisters to the status quo.

Meta plans to make Quest VR headsets a key tool for classroom learning, offering students immersive educational experiences. The push for VR in education raises questions about the future of learning and student engagement. Despite concerns like cybersickness and limited accessibility, Meta sees VR technology as a promising avenue for transforming education.

  • Meta will release a suite of visually engrossing education apps for teachers to use with students ages 13 and older in time for the fall 2024 semester.
  • Teachers will be able to manage multiple Quest devices at once without preparing and updating each device individually.
