<H2><SPAN>Why learn about VR?</SPAN></H2>
<P>Virtual reality (VR) provides immersive storytelling and gaming opportunities, and is a new medium for creativity and self-expression. VR has become increasingly accessible through tools like WebVR, where users can develop, experience, and share VR projects in their browser. </P>
<P><BR>A-Frame is a free, open source framework for developing WebVR, based in HTML. Because it is cross-platform, we can experience A-Frame projects using anything from an Oculus Rift, to the browser on our desktop computer. <BR><BR>We’ll review how to use A-Frame’s asset management system, and add animation and interactivity into our projects. At the end of this workshop, learners will also have the opportunity to use Google Cardboard to explore each other’s A-Frame scenes in 3D! <BR><BR>Learners will leave with a better understanding of A-Frame, including the many possibilities provided through the A-Frame Registry. We’ll practice using the built-in visual 3D inspector to test and use components from the Registry, so learners can continue to develop their projects from home.</P>
<P><BR></P>
<H2>Who is this for?</H2>
<P><SPAN><SPAN>Our Teens</SPAN><SPAN> Learning Code</SPAN><SPAN> program offers female-identified and male-identified, trans, and non-binary teenagers hands-on, project-based learning experiences that are designed to give beginners the skills and confidence they need to become digital creators. This workshop is ideal for teens between the ages of 12-17. </SPAN></SPAN></P>
