Abstract

Simulation and immersive technologies continue to revolutionize health and social care education, offering dynamic and contemporary ways of supporting and engaging with learners. Berragan, Kersey and Reilly explore the experience of social work students, academics, and simulation faculty in developing and delivering learning and assessment through immersive virtual reality technology. They identify the impact of their work with 3D Vista Pro, highlighting new and innovative possibilities that this technology brings for professional practice learning. The outcomes and impact of using this immersive technology are discussed, recognizing what this might mean for health and social care education and for professional practice learning across higher education.
