Virtual Collaboration Spaces
One of the challenges in forecasting the future of mobile collaboration (perhaps forecasting technology development more broadly) is that change always appears to be just around the corner.

To learn more and experience it for yourself, join us in our Mobile Collaboration Classroom. We selected LearnBrite as a platform as it is one of the few that easily support mobile, desktop and augmented reality interaction. It's also free to try, there are many more (expensive!) products and platforms in development some of which we tried to touch on in the resources shared within.

- Please note this is very much a "proof of concept" demonstration.
- We recommend using Safari on iOS or Chrome on Android or desktop/laptop computers for best results.
- Definitely try the AR feature if your mobile device supports it!
- If you have difficulty accessing this space, let us know so we can help as it's a fun, immersive experience of what the future may hold. However, we have also shared the resources below in case your technology just won't cooperate.
