Virtual Reality is a technology which has the potential to teach new skills through interactive simulations, and to enhance a student’s creative thinking abilities by reducing the fear normally associated with failure. This study explores the implementation requirements to utilize the Oculus Rift VR headset in a classroom environment. Hardware, software, space/design requirements, and Costs were all explored and analyzed, and the practicality of such an implementation was also discussed. The potential benefits students will gain from the use of VR for training purposes is immense, and the only potential downside is a high upfront cost to purchase all required hardware/equipment. This study also explored the actual classroom layout, and network infrastructure requirements, to fully realize the integration of VR in the classroom. All in all, Virtual Reality has the potential to change the way society learns as a whole, and improve the overall comprehension and mastery of a variety of aptitudes.

Design and Implement a fully functional CUCM (Cisco Unified Communications Manager) network capable of placing internal calls, as well as calling between multiple CUCM clusters. Additionally, setup a CUC (Cisco Unity Connection) server to handle voicemail, utilize SRST (Survivable Remote Site Telephony) if communication to the CUCM servers is lost, and configure devices to call across a PSTN connection in the event of a WAN link failure. Furthermore, setup various servers, workstations, and Cisco technologies to create a complete and functional network infrastructure.
