Headset on, reality altered.

Media & Communication Studies students at the University of Guelph-Humber are learning to become immersive storytellers by harnessing the power of extended reality (XR) in the New World: Exploring XR course.

Students Sophia Barcellona, Shannon Coady, Valentina Mikhailov, and Avery Patterson from the Winter 2026 session achieved a significant milestone when their class project – “Somnia – Do Students Dream of Overdue Sheep?” – was selected and showcased at the Festival of International Virtual and Augmented Reality Stories in Toronto.

“There's a difference between what can be portrayed through a flat, normal video and a 360 [degree] video,” Coady said.

Students can access VR headsets and cameras to create content at the Technology Resource Centre, located at GH320.
