Learn MoreOur Philosophy
Education does not have a start nor an end. We believe that all education is an on-going process of understanding experiences. With the right guidance, everyone has the capacity to learn anything.
From years of experience in instructional design, educational technology, and more, our team has developed a three step philosophy that applies to all forms of immersive learning.
Identification is the starting block for all methods of education. This is the point in every student's journey where one or more objectives have been chosen to guide their journey.
Investigation encompasses traditional learning methods and applications of common non-immersive multimedia--textbooks, photography, video, etc. This step is when the student dives into the identified topics to learn as much as they can as a secondary source. Immersive technology is not meant to replace traditional education, but to enhance it.
Immersion is the most exciting experience. It is also the most natural. For centuries, people have learned about their world through hands-on work and experimenting first-hand to confirm or challenge their existing knowledge. With virtual and augmented reality, this step in education has become more extravagant and sustainable then ever before.
