Our first ever epilogue! At the end of episode 7, Robert answered one of Adam's questions in a way that absolutely fascinated us, and he was gracious enough to stick around and say a bit more about why he thinks too many VR/AR/XR companies are at the point of "right technology, wrong implementation" (hint: the answer will sound very familiar to teachers and curriculum designers!).

Adam & Ryan had a chance to chat with Robert Rice, a tech pioneer who coined the term "XR." Robert explained why Virtual Reality can be an incredible educational tool for introverted students... the conversation was so great that we wound up recording an epilogue!
