Our VR team has been building VR learning experiences that are directly related to Program and Course Learning Outcomes. Our intent is to build competency and capacity in designing and developing VR learning modules that can augment learning both within and outside of the formal/scheduled learning environment. In doing so, we can further assist our students in achieving mastery of core learning outcomes. Additionally, we can plan and design learning opportunities to enhance the development of essential skills.

What is the mark of authenticity?

All bodies are sovereign, all realities legitimate.

As we reflect on ourselves and hold up these mirrors in tender and heartfelt ways, a kind of reclamation occurs. Our surroundings, and the narratives present in popular media that inundate don’t always portray the complex nature of existence.

In intimately sharing ourselves, we add to the cultural cannon and make room for unseen truths.

Celebrating our polytechnic environment, this exhibition is a juried selection of works across mediums from students of the Visual Arts Programs at Humber College.

The realness is in your reflection.
