[Purpose Statement]
With the arrival of stand-alone, wireless headsets, virtual reality (VR) technology is no longer too expensive or too complicated for everyday consumers. With large companies such as Facebook and Google jumping into develop their own VR systems, the technology has a high chance of becoming massively adopted. What does the rise of VR technology mean for communication scholarship and how do virtual experiences impact users in and outside of virtual worlds? How will ubiquitous adoption of VR impact our understanding of communication and social interactions? This course will offer students a comprehensive overview of the history of VR, critical developments in theory and the scientific literature, and VR in the context of communication and related social science studies.
