Past and Future Presence: Approaches for Implementing XR Technology in Humanities and Art Education

Lissa Crofton-Sleigh and Brian Beams

Past and Future Presence aims to bridge some of that gap by presenting research-based theory and case studies of successful application and implementation of XR technology into postsecondary educational settings, ranging in topics from ancient to modern languages, classical and contemporary art, and reenvisioned historical scenes and events presented in ways never seen before.
