VIVE Sync is a virtual meeting room and public speaking platform, in which you can create a smaller room for classroom setting, or a larger room for a lecture or speech environment. This can be very useful for anyone trying to get better at public speaking, or with the pandemic and social distances, for people to have engaging meetings with teachers/students, or coworkers. However, this app was extremely unreliable, as creating a meeting would not properly load, as well as joining a meeting. Overall, a great concept, but users can experience many difficulties making the technology work.

VRChat is an application that gives users a virtual avatar, and places them into a fictional world with other real users. Because of the complexity of the worlds and the objects within them, the possibilities are nearly endless, and it can be a very useful application for improving interpersonal skills as well as public speaking skills.
