Thank you, Kevin, for your pitch for LIT…

Thank you, Kevin, for your pitch for LIT, which is definitely lit in the newest slang use of the word! As an ELA teacher in my past life, I really appreciate the way you have connected these emerging technologies in such a creative, intriguing way to ELA. When I have tried to think of ways to apply VR in literature or ESL classes, my mind never went to these places – hopefully we have chances in other courses to brainstorm and share ideas! I especially think the use of VR for performances is a way to give more people access to productions they may not have the opportunity to experience and to give students that much needed idea of perspective through a first person experience, though this will be the most costly aspect and phase of the venture. There is a lot going on here, but you have done a good job to separate your ideas into different phases. I agree with Emily that you could split some of the ideas into different ventures, and maybe they come together under one umbrella.
