Virtual reality is a contemporary simulation method that is currently upgrading medical education. VR
provides a 3D and dynamic view of structures and the ability of the user to interact with them. The recent
technology allows the user to have a realistic and interactive experience; which enables hands-on procedures.
In this workshop, you learn how to use the VR glasses in an educational context for health profession
education. In a second step, you have the possibility to experience the virtual world yourself and learn
what educational settings are suitable for students in undergraduate education.
