[ISLMA-Share] VR Experiences

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We have used it with Social Studies to explore renaissance art and
cathedrals; we've also used it to explore iconic landmarks in Spain for a
Spanish class.  Youvisit Showcase, Google Streetview and Google Arts and
Culture apps have worked best.
