Cardboard Camera is a free and simple to use app from Google that allows you to take 360 degree photos on an Android phone (there are also similar iPhone apps). These photos can then be viewed on virtual reality viewers and desktop/mobile browsers. Here are some potential uses for 360 degree photos in (physical) education:
  • Create virtual classroom for remote instruction
  • Interesting new format for class/school/event photos​.
  • Share more detailed & complete views of your teaching space with others.
  • ​Simulate tactical decision making in a 1st person view of view.
360 degree video cameras are becoming more affordable and with better resolutions. These videos can then be viewed on virtual reality viewers and desktop/mobile browsers. While 360 degree videos are not quite virtual reality, they do have many potential uses in (physical) education such as:
  • Providing campus/facilities tour online.
  • ​​Recording lessons for reflection.
  • Recording and reviewing conference sessions.
  • ​Recording and reviewing athletic practices/performances.

using 360 videos for 4-wall dances
Software that comes with 360 degree cameras (at least mine) allows you to take a 360 degree video and edit it into a "Point of View" (POV) video. Why is this important? Traditionally, when 4-wall dances changes directions (rotates 90 degrees) the view changes from watching the dancers from behind (matching), to a side view, then to a front view (mirror), to another side view, and then back to watching from behind. With a POV video the students will always see a matching perspective, which should be much easier to follow along. Use a projector for one wall and use yourself for the opposite wall (this ensures students can always see a demonstrator).

Using 360 Videos for Dance Showcases
This dance was filmed with the camera hanging from the ceiling. This technique allows you to showcase all students and is great for parents. It can also be used to assess students' performances. Use the mouse cursor to change the perspective so that you can view each dancer.
