The Bodyswaps team has a workshop case we've affectionately dubbed Big Orange (you can see where he got his name 🟠). Some of you may have had an appearance from him recently! ✨ This week, Janie Gonsalez and Big Orange went on an adventure - our question is, #WheresBigOrange? Do you recognise the location from the cropped photo below? 🤔 Let us know in the comments!

We were recently funded by Bodyswaps to test out their VR software with our participants. Using the app, it allowed them to be put in a full virtual environment and practice situations such as interview practice and public speaking. The participant then receives feedback and suggestions from the software, which really helps with self-reflection and understanding their strengths & weaknesses. With the people we've worked with over the years, even a mock interview may feel too real and stressful. This allows them to practice in a safe environment, so when they feel ready and approach the day, they'll feel much more prepared than before. We've used Bodyswaps with our participants over the weeks, we've used it one on one and in group settings where it can also be interactive. Hooking the VR up to the TV so the group were able to see what the headset was showing the user. We can't wait to continue to use this over the year, it's a fantastic way to give the ever important soft-skills to those who feel they can't make it to an interview room yet. Or even to those who just want to practice freely so they smash it on the day!

Today is #LoveYourPetDay so we're taking the time to celebrate some of the team's animal companions. 🧡 There might be a bit of a surprise in there amongst the canines and felines. 👀 How does your pet brighten up your life? 🐕🐈🦎🐟

Thank you Bodyswaps for giving Parker University senior sonography students a way to practice their interviewing skills before graduating. They love our Meta Quest 3 headsets.

Kindness is so 2024. In a world that criminalizes inclusion, brave institutions can still drive real change using bold approaches to training A new study conducted at Unity Health Toronto used Bodyswaps to equip healthcare professionals with techniques and confidence to tackle everyday racism. The impact? A shift from silence to action. 📢 "Armed with the techniques from my training, I was able to call out the behaviour instead of being a passive bystander." (a participant) Key takeaways: ⚡ VR builds confidence to intervene in racist incidents 🏥 Culture matters—tech alone isn’t the solution 🔑 Psychological safety is key to lasting change 📖 Full study link in comment #DEI #VR #AI #Leadership #FutureOfWork #healthcare

Experiential learning and providing students with the hard and soft skills to succeed is embedded throughout our teaching and learning. Bodyswaps is an exciting opportunity for our postgraduate students to immerse themselves in virtual reality simulations. In the simulations students can develop and improve a variety of soft skills to support their employability and communication skills (e.g. job interviews, public speaking, presentation skills, negotiation and conflict management). "I really enjoyed this new experience, It was really interesting and helpful. It pushed me out of my comfort zone and allowed me to learn new things.” Explore our postgraduate courses at https://lnkd.in/eSR4cTfv
