Media and Immersive experiences in higher education provide students the opportunity to engage with course content in ways that were not previously possible. The Media and Immersive team at the University of New South Wales, Sydney (UNSW) was created to support academics in developing innovative solutions and to foster engagement from students with new forms of content delivery. This paper will outline the affordances and challenges of media and immersive applications at UNSW and examine the possibilities that artificial intelligence and open educational resources offer in overcoming some of the barriers to widespread adoption.
