Our study of middle school students recieving math tutoring in Virutal Reality is out! VR allowed students to collaboratively and dynamically interact with math concepts while receiving tutoring to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Check it out, it is open access! link.springer.com/article/10.1...
