“The students were engaged and highly interested in exploring and learning with ClassVR. Since students were “wowed” by the scenery, they were eager to share their description of the setting and the words came easily.”

“Describing something in words or even in a 2D image or video is nothing compared to the actual virtual reality experience provided by ClassVR. Students feel like they’re actually there and this cannot be created with anything else I’ve used in education thus far. Students were talking about this lesson for weeks.”

“ClassVR turned a current events lesson into a culminating experience; it connected them to the news events in a way that printed word or an online video could not do. Adding virtual reality to my lesson also awoke my students’ sense of empathy and helped them to understand this global news event in a more meaningful way.”

“Their level of enthusiasm, engagement and resilience in this topic was greatly increased and we were very impressed with the children’s retention and ability to apply their understanding across the board. The high levels of cognitive engagement and achievement during the topic would not be possible without these amazing opportunities provided digital technologies.”

“We believe VR technology was the perfect learning tool to extend our students’ ideas and promote analytical thinking. ClassVR engaged and inspired every student in our learning community. It added a third dimension to their learning experience that they could connect with and become inspired by.”

“Using ClassVR, children experienced the place of Mary’s imprisonment and, due to the weather at the time of filming, develop an understanding of the ‘feel’ to her conditions. The ClassVR playlist allows for development of first-person vocabulary to be discussed and used in written work.”
