Virtual Production Environments for Safe, Affordable Technology Training
Proverbial wisdom tells us that there is no substitute for real experience. When it comes to providing a rich and compelling interaction with a technology, letting students experiment and make mistakes with an application is one of the most effective means of driving home key learning points.
