Innovative, technology-based lessons ignite curiosity about the world, its cultures, and the role students play in our global economy.
360-degree views inspire students to explore the details that make a people, a culture, or a natural wonder..
Integrated, cross-curricular lessons guide students in reflecting on the interconnectedness of our world.
The VR Experience
As a Google® partner, we have developed 360-degree virtual field trips that allow students to travel through history, explore the world, and witness scientific wonders without ever leaving the classroom. Augmented by detailed lesson plans aligned with specific learning objectives, the virtual reality experience guides students through fully immersive, self-directed learning experiences. Discover the power of purposeful technology!
By turning their heads or looking up and down, students explore virtual landscapes—focusing in on elements that excite them. Driven by student curiosity and designed to promote student-led learning, students are the drivers in their journey.
Teachers use a tablet to lead the expeditions, monitor where students are in the virtual reality experience, pause a trip to direct students to look at a particular part of an image, and control which images students see within an expedition.
- Take students behind the scenes at NASA, into caves, and through ecosystems to empower them to embrace real-world science.

- Make language come alive as you travel with students to the countries they are learning about in each unit of ¡Avancemos! and Bien dit!®
