Our video collection continues to grow and expand to cover your curriculum. Here's a closer look at one of our most popular series, Virtual Microcases. |

Unique to Mindscape Commons, these 360° videos put students face to face virtually with clients who present with anger, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, identity and relationship problems, trauma, grief, and other issues. A case study authored by Dr. Tyler Wilkinson of Mercer University shows that these experiential videos are measurably more effective than written case studies; in his research, students reported more engagement, less anxiety, and better preparedness.
Your users can view the experiences in Mindscape Commons with a head-mounted device such as an Oculus or Google cardboard for immersion, or they can simply use a laptop or phone. The videos will support a variety of courses, including Skills, Theories, Ethics, and Assessment. |
