Features:
◆Finding yourself standing beside a kid as he runs through a refugee camp or perches on a wall by an old Soviet monument is emotionally touching and entirely delivered by this app.
◆It's quite solemn to look up and down and around and find yourself so completely immersed in someone else's world
◆If you take the time to incorporate thoughtful discussion before and after using NYT VR, this could be a great way for provoking thoughtful, in-depth discussions.
◆ It will also help kids to witness and rethink what life might be like for people thousands of miles away who aren't so different from them after all.
Notes:
It's better to sit in a swivel chair when you use the app because when you stand up, you'll quickly find yourself wandering into a corner or stumbling over a desk.
