Traditional nursing training is often costly and resource-intensive, with limited financial and human resources frequently impeding the scope and effectiveness of implementation. Fortunately, Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies offer promising new avenues for nursing education. By combining a realistic virtual environment with adaptive conversational experiences, students can achieve novel practice outcomes. This project specifically explores how the synergy of these two cutting-edge technologies can fundamentally reshape nursing education.

VR and AI technologies have been studied in fields such as educational technology. However, in the library and information science field, researchers are still seeking answers to questions about the roles of VR and AI. Do libraries really need VR and AI? What roles can VR and AI play in a library? What attitudes do library administrators, staff, and patrons hold toward VR and AI? These questions have not been fully answered. This project aims to investigate what VR and AI mean to libraries and the people inside and provide better applications of these technologies for them.

While generative AI (GAI) has been increasingly used to enhance instructors' and learners' experiences and performance in teaching and learning activities, the role of GAI in facilitating educational research methods is less explored or discussed. This project investigates what roles GAI can play in assisting the implementation of interviews. We aim to discover a few ways to simplify, accelerate, or enhance existing educational research methods.

Universities are increasingly offering online programs, but students shouldn't miss the campus experience. This Augmented Reality (AR) tour brings the heart of Emporia State University (ESU) directly to online students. It acts as their personal, on-demand campus visit, eliminating travel and scheduling conflicts. Users get multimedia information about iconic locations like the library, with interactive features providing context on academic programs and campus vibe. It's an accessible and engaging way to connect with the physical university.
