Learn to Hunt like a San: A Virtual Reality Experience Blending Traditional Practices with Formal Education
Selma Auala, Heike Winschiers‐Theophilus · 2025
Concerned with incorporating indigenous knowledge and the learning of traditional practices in formal education, we have created a Learn how to hunt like a San VR application in collaboration with primary school students in Namibia.The application is based on a previously developed and culturally validated VR hunting experience with a San partner community.We have extended the application with two features facilitating intentional learning, namely a poster board and a non-player character guiding players throughout the hunting experience.
