“It felt like I was on the ship. It scared me, my heart is racing. I was reaching around trying to touch things like the boat and the girl on the ship The noises were loud. It felt so very real, like i was there. Anxiety took over my body, my hands were clammy, I was scared.”
“ I heard people crying, people screaming and yelling because they were confused as to why some people were restricted from going onto the lifeboats. People were realistic and it looked like I was actually on the lifeboat sitting on the bench and if I moved over to the left anymore then I would of fell into the sea.

“ The experience is different from watching it threw the glasses verses just on the screen from when others did it. It looks almost fake on the TV but when you have the glasses on you could tell it was fake but like it was so realistic to the point where you could touch the people next to you and the water and sounds looked and sounded like I was their on that ship on that day.”

The sinking was very intense, chaotic, and loud. The water entered the ship so quickly that people didn’t
have time to react. No one knew what would happen next, as the ship sank,
then continued to snap in half and sink even more. People were jumping off of the sides and sliding down the decks. Women and children watched the disaster unfold from the lifeboats. There was nothing anyone could do
to stop it. People felt helpless as they approached their inevitable fate.

Film VS Virtual Reality: 12th Grade
Sitting on the lifeboat, I could feel the confusion among the others. It was so
dark that all we could do was watch the ship sink. I could hear another woman
breathing heavily right in my ear, since it was so crowded. There was a baby and a small dog, who both whimpered in a
sense of panic. As the ship snapped and sank completely, I heard the screams of
those watching, and those who went down with the Titanic. After the ship was completely submerged, I listened as the lifeboat passengers realized the fate of
their loved ones on board.

Capstone Writing AssignmentAs a capstone writing assignment for the Titanic Experience, write a one page (typed double spaced, here) story of you surviving the Titanic disaster.
Make it first person point of view, make up your character and his or her life circumstances, and start the story wherever you see fit- but then bring that person through the sinking. What do they see, hear, smell, feel? What happens to them? Do they make it?
Reflections and Next Steps⬡ Adapt to a larger, older class.⬡ Refine timing of VR, rotations & shuffling of groups⬡ Evaluate the level of writing from the Capstone.
