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?

I'm a VR professional. I'm also an amateur violinist. Not too shabby, and getting better with practice. Once a year, I take a week off to play with the wonderful musicians of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. Alongside the pros and other amateurs, we practice and perform great classical music works. That week got me thinking about VR can help various aspects of the performing arts.
