Five education students from George Mason University’s College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) were recently honored at the 23rd Teachers of Promise Institute, a statewide celebration recognizing exemplary future educators from colleges and universities across Virginia.
Ashley Truluck, current student in the Learning Design and Technology Program, will be traveling to Athens, Greece this summer to present her peer-reviewed poster session titled, “Under Pressure: A Design to Reduce Blood Pressure Reading Errors by Clinical Staff With Virtual Reality Training.” Her work was accepted to the Immersive Learning Research Network Conference, a highly regarded international conference that brings together leading academic researchers, technology innovators, and simulation experts from around the world. Ashley developed the idea in one of her courses, EDIT 772: Virtual Worlds, Augmented Reality and Gaming Simulations, and is so excited to represent George Mason at the conference!
