Bayside Academy School is a public K-8 school located in San Mateo, CA. and is part of the San Mateo-Foster City School District. With approximately 800 students and a very diverse student population we have a strong culture of mutual respect and support for each other.
Gilead Sciences has provided a generous grant to build a VR lab with an emphasis on NGSS based science applications. The Virtual Reality Lab is scheduled to open September 2019 with 16 Oculus Go stations that will support a class size of 32 students. Our teachers have curated a wide variety of VR apps and this will grow substantially in the coming years. We will be working with Stanford University’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab to optimize the learning experience for our students.
Virtual reality is immersive, engaging, and exciting, offering a way for teachers to take students to places that were never possible before. We are fortunate in having this opportunity when VR technology is blossoming with low cost VR headsets and a rapidly emerging body of educational VR apps. Students at Bayside will have an exciting year in 2019-2020. We will literally be going where “no one has gone before”.
