This week, my guests are two of the College's leaders in getting augmented and virtual reality technologies into the hands of NWTC students, Jason Trombley and Mike Race. Mike and Jason work closely with Instructors in various programs around the College to pilot, test, and deploy AR and VR technologies and are also starting a club for students to have fun and explore these technologies outside the classroom.  To learn more about AR and VR, or to see live demonstrations, stop by Engineering Open House on 2/22/2022 or anytime in room ET103 in the Trades Atrium on the Green Bay campus.  To contact Jason directly, feel free to email him at [email protected].
