The Digital Education Futures Collective will be running webinars, workshops and events over the course of 2025/26. These will be advertised on this page, as well as via the all-staff THRIVE newsletter, and on the Academic Affairs Calendar of Events.
🍎VR Taster Series (January 2026 - April 2026)
Are you interested in VR for teaching and learning, but don't have the equipment to explore it? Our upcoming VR Taster Workshop Series will give you a chance to try a headset in a supportive and stress-free environment. Each workshop is beginner-friendly, and fully supported. Participants will get guided hands-on time with headsets in a structured 60-minute in-person workshop. You'll get to explore immersive teaching examples, and get ideas for your own practice. Across Semester 2, 2025/26, we’ll be running hands-on sessions on every campus, designed to be engaging, confidence-building...and of course, fun! No technical background is needed, just your curiosity and a willingness to give something new a go. If you’re wondering what VR could offer your teaching or research, this is the perfect opportunity to find out.

This session offers an inside look at how the XRHub is shaping the future of digital and immersive education, from designing Ireland’s national Immersive Technology Apprenticeship to building strong industry and academic partnerships. TU Dublin and MSLETB are on parallel paths toward integrating immersive technologies in education, and this session invites open conversation, shared insights, and collaboration for the future of digital innovation.
