Today I publish a review about the magnetic lenses for Meta Quest 2 sold by VR Rock , a Chinese company selling accessories for VR headsets. Since I have no need for prescriptions, I have tested the anti blue light lenses with no prescription. Unboxing.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course?

The level of competition in the desktop CPU market has rarely been as intensive as it has been over the last couple of years.

Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
