Inspirit – an Atlanta-based, research-backed EdTech startup, announced the official launch of its Innovative Learning Hub. The digital platform is offering educators affordable annual access to a premium library of virtual reality and augmented reality (XR) experiences designed for middle and high school students. Plus Inspirit’s Innovative Learning Hub is the only one-stop-shop for immersive XR STEM content, enabling students to explore subjects like mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and trade-related careers training in a cross-platform environment.
Inspirit is backed by a team that focused on conducting rigorous studies in partnership with Stanford University researchers and they are on a mission to introduce the proven benefits of XR learning to schools around the world. And by utilizing easy-to-use technology, the Innovative Learning Hub is bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world applications, fostering a deeper understanding and a measurable increase in student engagement.
Through a vetted ecosystem of best-in-class content partners, Inspirit’s platform offers a comprehensive range of age-appropriate XR experiences aligned with educational standards. Ranging from engaging simulations to interactive lessons, students could easily explore and study complex concepts, making learning more tangible and enjoyable.
Another significant advantage of the Innovative Learning Hub is its cross-platform compatibility. And students are able to consume the library of content from multiple devices, including laptops, Chromebooks, and most VR headsets built for educational use. This flexibility offers schools to leverage existing hardware investments while expanding their learning capabilities. Plus by eliminating the need for numerous costly subscriptions and one-off purchases, Inspirit encourages schools to activate an inclusive and accessible STEM curriculum for all students.
