XD Learning is a powerful, secure XR platform with a STEM-based library of educational experiences.
Our experiences support, enhance and align to STEM curriculum for K-12 schools.
With this new technology in the classroom, students are able to visualize complex concepts and perform interactions to help them improve their engagement.
As far as the student response to it, it's been extremely enthusiastic, it reinforces what they're learning in the classroom but also gives them a way to kind of make it more memorable.
As a student, the Bisbee Science Lab has enlightened me on things that normally would not be taught in Bisbee's public school system. I had access to things like virtual reality and hands-on learning activities. I now realize, after experiencing what the science center has to offer through volunteering there weekly, science is greatly needed in our community and our rapidly developing world. I learned that science can be more than just a core class at school in an indoor classroom, and can stretch far beyond the realm of notes and textbooks.
In this day and age, trying to get the students to pay attention for longer than 10 or 15 minutes in class when you’re doing traditional lecturing & problem solving, has created quite a challenge. The students nowadays want to see the technology which they know and love applied in the educational space, because it reinforces the concepts that we hit in the classroom.
We’re very excited to give our students this opportunity for AR. They have an opportunity to do labs they would not normally be able to do because of costs, or hazards, or things like that… It’s a lot of fun for them and it excites them in science learning.
