VRIRF
VR Implementation Readiness Framework
A scored 20-indicator rubric across five conditions, with action thresholds for deployment decisions.
Research
My doctoral work at the University of Southern Queensland investigates what makes head-mounted virtual reality actually work in higher education — beyond the hype. The instruments below were developed as the practical contribution of that research, and are published here for institutions, learners, facilitators, developers, and researchers to use directly.
The VR Toolbox
Five instruments developed through doctoral research. Try them at vrtools.brodiemcgee.com.
LSRS
Learner Suitability & Risk Screener
A 12-item self-report producing a red/amber/green risk level with recommended accommodations.
PSFP
Pre-Session Facilitation Protocol
Enter your session date and the tool produces a personalised week-long facilitation timeline.
VSFA
VR-Specific Friction Audit
24 binary items across six domains for auditing a platform, with three deployment-blocking critical items.
TAM-VRv0.1
Candidate item pool
A research-stage pool of 17 items proposing three constructs for future scale development. Not a validated instrument.
