00:09Let's take a look at Katrina Son's report.
00:16Virtual reality, but it's not for entertainment or games.
00:20Instead, it's for the training of hospitality students of a university in Batangas.
00:26The VR Playroom, which was tried by a third-year college student, Carlos de los Reyes.
00:32He said the interview app is his favorite.
00:56For their understanding and their patience.
00:58We need to have communication and interpersonal skills as employees or as aspiring workers in the tourism and hospitality field.
01:08We can collaborate in terms of innovation and technology in the field of training.
01:13Once they put on the headset, they are instantly transported into virtual and simulation hotel and restaurant environment.
01:26Through VR, students will be able to have a proper conversation with the guests.
01:33Arranging hotel rooms and items in the housekeeping section.
01:38It is also important for the students to learn what to do if there is a fire.
01:45For example, in the kitchen, they can repeat how to put out the fire.
01:50They just put on their VR headset.
01:53This is the VR Playroom.
01:55Here, you can see the students who are trying different modules of the hospitality industry.
02:02Here, you can also see the headsets and controllers.
02:07Aside from that, there are also many computers here.
02:09Through these computers, students can cast what they see in their headsets towards this computer.
02:20We are allowed to practice here.
02:22It is a big thing for us to practice here.
02:25Metaverse will be big in the future.
02:27Even though here in the tourism and hospitality, we are skill-based.
02:31But we want to give the students this different type of learning.
