概要	Advancements in immersive virtual reality (VR) have encouraged educators to start looking for ways to leverage the potentials of this technology. This concise paper reports the preliminary findings of a study where VR was used in an educational setting. A small group of teachers and students explored free VR apps and investigated their usefulness for learning. Through this activity, they not only compiled a list of VR apps that could potentially be used by teachers but also co-investigated the benefits and challenges of implementing VR-powered activities. The study was backed up by student app reviews, teacher observations, and focus group interviews. The results revealed that students found VR engaging and stimulating and successfully explored the educational values of multiple apps; however, they experienced some degree of cybersickness. As a response to this concern, the next phase of the study will focus on desktop VR and learner-generated content.
