Our presentation will showcase collaborative immersive projects implemented through the Innovation X program. Students from arts, engineering, special education, and the Aggie ACHIEVE program worked together over two semesters to create projects that explored opportunities for people with disabilities. Our case study aims to promote inclusive design practices that empower people with disabilities to engage with immersive technology, while also helping students become more inclusive and collaborative individuals in the design process.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Presenters:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jinsil Seo, Associate Professor\u00a0(Texas A&amp;M University)<\/li>\n<li>Caleb Kicklighter, Instructional Assistant Professor (Texas A&amp;M University)<\/li>\n<li>Paule Taele,\u00a0Instructional Assistant Professor (Texas A&amp;M University)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Session type:<\/strong> Case Study<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note: Session time is listed in BST.
