Ryan Schultz comes to the Students In VR Workshop stage. Ryan has an unusual but useful background for a librarian: an honors degree in Computer Science. He has worked both in computer technology jobs and as a professional librarian, and has often worked where he can combine his two skill sets: applying various aspects of information technology to improve library service. 

******************************

For the past three years, Ryan has been writing a blog about social VR, virtual worlds, and the metaverse, called RyanSchultz.com . A fundamental shift is occurring in education. Once a top-down static practice of information transfer, learning is now about the dynamic act of knowledge creation. Students are not just content consumers but also content contributors and content creators. 

Students in VR, an Educators in VR  project, is an organization that supports, highlights and connects students who use spatial computing to create the lessons, environments and worlds in which they live and learn. Emerging technologies have finally caught up with the creativity and genius of youth. 

We are here to support that creativity and genius through the Student in VR international conferences and chapters. Students in VR: Students in VR Website  is a student-led and produced project from Educators in VR  presenting meetups, workshops, and conferences for and with students across multiple VR platforms.
