Māori Mai ME is the world’s first developmental virtual reality app for learning te reo Māori. The ‘Māori Mai ME’ app focuses on the effectiveness of virtual reality as a language learning tool to reduce a user’s feelings of whakamā (anxiety) while learning te reo Māori.
The aim of this project was to develop an app delivered on a smartphone using low-cost virtual reality headsets to present basic Māori language phrases in a range of contexts.
