Reflection Blog

The topic of virtual reality is very diverse in the way that some define it and in the ways that they use it. Also, it is consider diverse because of the name virtual reality itself. I wanted my topic to be for a general audience and not focus on just a specific group of people. Providing information on the different areas that virtual reality is in and the different reasons that it is used in that particular area and how people can benefit from it. I wanted the design of the site to be as simple as possible with easy navigation throughout the pages and to have working links to the other pages. The information that I provided on the site I believe benefits everyone, whether they had knowledge about the use of it or not. For those who have some kind of knowledge about what virtual reality is, I’m sure that my discussing the different things that it can be used for and the benefits of its use are very informative. It is even more informative to those who don’t know what the use of virtual reality is and the positive effects that it has on people. Most of the research done on the topic of virtual reality was based on educational usage, medical use, and scientific use. The information comes from different Universities throughout the United States and the programs that they are compiling and run using virtual reality. Also, information is obtained from online journals that have done articles on virtual reality what it is, who uses it, why they use it, the benefits of using it, and the progression of its use. Also, included in the research are some of the studies that were conducted, who participated in the studies and the results of the studies.
