chicago The Los Angeles Unified School District has chosen ClassVR from Avantis Education, a global leader in virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) educational technology, to introduce innovative immersive learning experiences to students. With more than 16,000 ClassVR headsets deployed, this collaboration supports Los Angeles Unified's Educational technology Initiative and is designed to provide district students with access to cutting-edge VR and AR tools to improve student engagement and enrich academic instruction. .
ClassVR, designed exclusively for K-12 classrooms, provides an all-in-one immersive learning solution that includes all the hardware, software, training and support needed to successfully implement VR/AR. Through the collaboration, Los Angeles Unified educators can access ClassVR's vast Eduverse library, which is home to hundreds of thousands of virtual reality and augmented reality resources, allowing teachers to create engaging and interactive lessons that engage students on a deeper level.
Empowering schools with immersive technology
Avantis Education has been a trusted partner of Los Angeles Unified for two years, providing virtual reality experiences that spark curiosity and inspire learning throughout the district. Initially adopted by some schools, the success of ClassVR has led to its rapid expansion. Many Los Angeles Unified schools now use their own ClassVR headsets for both in-class instruction and after-school enrichment programs, fostering a dynamic learning environment where students can explore everything from history and science to career and technical education, all through the immersive lens of virtual reality. .
This latest collaboration will focus on before- and after-school enrichment programs, with significant potential for broader applications across a wide range of academic disciplines. The collaboration positions Los Angeles Unified as a leader in using immersive learning technologies to provide students with impactful educational experiences that improve academic outcomes.
“Los Angeles Unified has demonstrated its commitment to pioneering educational technology by putting students at the forefront of innovative learning tools,” said Huw Williams, CEO of Avantis Education. “Through our collaboration, we are proud to help the district expand its use of virtual reality technology in a thoughtful and strategic way, supporting the district's vision of making learning more engaging and future-focused.”
