EngageXR is a VR platform that provides educators with the tools that can be used to create an immersive classroom that can engage students in meaningful learning experiences. Teachers can record interactions and have their students watch themselves during activities that include role-play or scenario-based learning. Immersive effects and other tools help students visualize vocabulary words or create their own projects that can be saved or recorded for feedback.
- Participants learn how to use EngageXR to create an immersive environment for students for free.
- Participants learn to use Engage to use the quizzing tools, effects and more for students feedback.
