Upskilling teachers for an upskilled nation!๐ฉโ๐ซ๐
#AIM and @MakerGhat organised an #ATL Teacher Training session in Palakkad, #Kerala.
From innovative teaching strategies to collaborative learning, our educators are equipped to make a positive impact on students' lives. ๐๐
Thrilled to share that I'm officially #PhDone! Huge thanks to my brilliant committee @nehakumar@andreagparker @Pushpendra_S__ @thomasploetz Mike Best and Shaowen Bardzell, and to the Tandem lab @GeorgiaTech that saw me through! โค๏ธ
More life updates coming soon! ๐
Today Iโll be sharing the stage with some inspiring leaders in edtech - @dreamscape@Adi_Vish@Bodekaer@vijayravindran@ZoeImmersive - who will be exploring the ways that AR + VR tech are revolutionizing how people learn. https://t.co/nKT0qEVdBn
"Inspirit isn't just an extracurricular activity. One of the biggest differentiators between Inspirit VR classroom and other platforms is that it addresses core content. It's not something that students need to use independently."โ@MongoDB

Day 0 of representing @inspiritVR at the @NCSSS_STEM Atlanta conference today! So excited to have presented to the board of directors, and to kick start an exciting couple of weeks with long time friends and family @CEISMC. #ARVRinEDU#STEMeducation
VR teaches how we're wired to learn: experientially. Through our #VRLabStarterKit program, you can bring VR's power to educate, engage, & inspire to your school at a fraction of its normal cost.
Ready to build your own VR science lab? Learn more & apply below๐ #edtech#edchat
Itโs true! We have our first cohort of schools from this program joining right now. Please refer to any schools that you think might be a good fit! #vrchat#BackToSchool
Applications for our #VRLabStarterKitProgram are rolling in from all across the US, from Texas to Georgia to Illinois to Wisconsin to NY & more! Spots are limited, so if your school is a #Title1 or serves minority populations, apply today! Link๐#edchat#elearning#teacher#VR
100% agree: this is a matter of if and not when, and we're merely scratching the surface of what is possible with VR in K12 STEM education! @inspiritVR is excited to be on this 'futures of VR' article by @KwalkyTalky@BessemerVP! #biology

VR will transform the way we play, socialize, learn, and collaborate. It is no longer an โifโ questionโ itโs now about โwhen.โ
This is happening! We're giving underserved schools FREE VR lab kits to help them get started with Inspirit. Please reach out / share if you know someone that would find this valuable. #iteachphysics#iteachbiology#iteachchemistry#edchat
Turns out we can! & even better, we are! Introducing the #VRLabStarterKit Program, a joint initiative between Inspirit and Meta Immersive Learning to bring FREE #MetaQuest2 VR headsets to Title I and other historically underserved schools in the US. Learn more below๐ #edchat#VR
Did you know that only 20% of US schools have access to #VR technology? Hmm...if only there was SOMETHING we could do to change that....๐ #elearning#edchat#k12
@albertoarenaza CSCL and ISLS are typically among the top venues (not journals) for education technology work. Among journals, Journal of Learning Sciences (JLS) and Education Researcher (ER) both have a lot of EdTech representation.
