ClassVR is designed specifically for K-12 classrooms and provides an all-in-one immersive learning solution that includes all the hardware, software, training, and support needed to deploy VR/AR. Through this collaboration, Los Angeles Unified educators will have access to ClassVR’s Eduverse library, which houses hundreds of thousands of virtual reality and augmented reality resources.
For two years, Avantis Education has been a trusted partner of Los Angeles Unified, providing virtual reality experiences that spark curiosity and encourage learning across the district. Initially adopted by a small number of schools, ClassVR’s success quickly expanded. Many Los Angeles Unified schools now utilize the unique ClassVR headset for both in-class instruction and extra-curricular enrichment programs, allowing students to explore everything from history and science to career and technical education through immersive education.
