Prisms VR
Prisms of Reality Founder & CEO
Prisms is pioneering powerful and efficacious learning experiences in virtual reality. Backed by the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Prisms is the first spatial learning platform for K-12 STEM education that teaches secondary math and science concepts spatially and intuitively, through hands-on real-world problems, before building up to symbolic notation and higher levels of abstraction. In a moment when student engagement is too often at rock bottom, math achievement has dramatically decreased, and teachers are feeling burned out and uninspired, Prisms introduces a pedagogically rigorous, relevant and joyful learning solution for Math. The response so far from students and teachers is electric across multiple dimensions we’re tracking such as student engagement, achievement growth, and teacher/school partner retention. Prisms is rapidly growing - we have 100+ district partners and 60000+ students using Prisms across the US, with nearly 100% of our Year 1 beta partners renewing for a second year. Partners range from a single site with 100 students to some of the largest districts in the nation with initial Phase I implementations of 10000+ students.
