SUMMARY:XR and Education: Meeting Learning and Teaching Challenges in Virt
 ual and Augmented Reality
DESCRIPTION:Educator's Forum\n\nSIGGRAPH Asia 2023 is excited to announce 
 the return of the education program! The Educator’s Forum invites people f
 rom both academia and the industry to present innovative research, methods
  and developments related to the teaching of computer graphics and interac
 tive techniques and application of computer graphics and interactive techn
 iques in all areas of learning.\nSupporting the conference theme – Connect
 ing Stories, being able to tell stories and communicate effectively throug
 h and across a diverse range of social, cultural, professional, technical,
  and creative networks, and communities is a vital part of the educational
  experience. SIGGRAPH Asia views education as a natural and essential part
  of the lifelong learning process and supports the evolving integration of
  art and technology embraced by educators.\n\n\nAs an international gather
 ing of industry professionals and academics, the Educator’s Forum will pre
 sent perspectives that appeal to a wide spectrum of interests and share ed
 ucational strategies adopted in both industry and academia to make the lea
 rning process more satisfying, productive, and meaningful.\n\nTable Cape V
