People do not realize what VR can really do for the society. This invention will change the lifestyle for sports, school, and all sorts of events. With my invention, it will be for 15 years old and up. In order for people to see the VR invention and what it does, there will be ads about it for people to click on and explore the magic of the VR. The VR will be educational in the way where the kids and men that play basketball, will never be the same player as they were before. They will be even better. With using the device, the players will be able to see the defense and defensive tactics and be able to learn their plays and run the plays against them. It will give the player the time to practice and learn what is going to happen and how the defense covers the offense. Also, it will be able to put you in real life situations. “Several methodologies, like video and methods based on virtual environments, are currently employed to analyze visual perception during sport situations” (Human Movement Science). For example, it will be able to give you a fourth quarter clutch situation to go with. There will be five seconds on the clock and you have to score to win. This will give you the chance to work on the ability to be clutch in the time that is really needed. When using the VR, there is no need to stress and be mad that you did do the task right and did not win the game. There is time for improvement because the VR gives tips to the player while he is performing the task. In order to get better, there needs to practice, and this is what it gives you. It is time for a player to reflect on what they need to get better at, and how they can improve their skills to be the best player that they can be. It will work and this could be the change that you need to be the basketball player you always dreamed of being.

Pitch
For your final project you will be creating an educational VR experience. The first step in this process is to pitch your idea to your potential investors (your classmates and Mosaic Learning). To accomplish this you must present:
- A 350 word abstract in MLA format. Post this to the blog under tag “pitch.” Find examples here: http://www.umt.edu/ugresearch/umcur/sample_abstracts.php
- A description of your intended audience and an explanation of how you will reach them.
- A clear purpose and an explanation of why this is educational and how it can be assessed.
- Citations and evidence of research.
- A multimedia presentation with visual aides.
You will have 3 minutes to present, and I will time you. Think of this like a Shark Tank pitch. You want the presentation to be convincing, dynamic, and well researched. Be prepared to answer questions from the audience.
