The exploration of augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) technologies in higher education is a fascinating and timely subject. It's encouraging to see institutions like UC Berkeley critically assessing the potential of these technologies while also considering important factors such as privacy, accessibility, and security. As AR and VR continue to evolve, their integration into education could lead to transformative experiences for both students and educators, opening up new horizons in teaching, learning, and research.
