Our Solution
"What would it take to make the exception the rule? How may we create a system where it wouldn't be necessary to work against the grain to be successful? ... Our thesis can be captured in one sentence: We need to change student learning, so we need to change schools, so we need to change systems."
From the book "In Search of Deeper Learning", by Jal Mehta and Sarah Fine.
The Deeper Learning Metaverse®
We believe the obstacles to “change systems” into Deeper Learning are almost unsurmountable within the legacy and complexity of today’s educational sector. With this in mind, we have designed a new, parallel environment where the elements needed for meaningful Deeper Learning experiences can be aligned with ease, at a fraction of the cost, and without disrupting our current structures.
We set out to identify and understand the elements that ignite Deeper Learning in young minds, and replicated them within a self-contained, digital, cross-reality (XR) world. We plan to run it in parallel to our current educational structures, so that it can complement them in a way that helps sway their Stakeholders towards more meaningful, experiential learning.
