Given that, we wanted to supplement our paraprofessional student interns with professional staff to answer questions not just about the specific technologies, but the field more broadly. We thought we could also help our student interns manage four or five students exploring four different technologies, providing a mentorship opportunity between our professional and student support staff. Due to the class and sport schedules of Chris Georges\u2019 students, the times that worked for them were all evenings; of these, we worked around Kyle and Ben\u2019s schedules and events in the library to plan five sessions, enough for all the students.<\/p>\n<p>For <em>Contemporary Issues in Computer Science<\/em>, we\u2019ll be scheduling with Google Calendar, and it will be completely handled by our student interns. Our entire student staff will be trained in supporting VR, so Hirshfield\u2019s students will be able to schedule a one-on-one appointment with the VIVE any time Burke Library\u2019s Research &amp; Design Studio is open.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When so many students need to use a VIVE headset\u2014a limited, one-at-a-time resource\u2014how do we schedule successfully?
