Thanks to Alex Teal and the staff at the Virtual Reality Lab in WMU Libraries for hosting our class. Students were able to use the VR headsets to simulate different games that make movement and activity more engaging, including the ultimate balance challenge walking a plank 80 stories in the air. The flight simulator also let students use piloting skills.

We hosted a Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program Course last week and had some familiar faces in attendance! It's great to see some of our alumni that are now fully ready to serve as CI's. Kudos to our DCE Daren Webb for all the work to make this happen.
