STEM Instruction

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) help build the foundation for student learning.

More than simply learning each of its lettered subjects, STEM instruction helps students develop critical thinking skills and student-centered learning experiences.

Understanding STEM concepts can be one of the biggest indicators of student success in the classroom and after school. Students with disabilities may often struggle with STEM learning due to the abstractness of the concepts, complexity of the vocabulary, and often limited supports from general education teachers in these subjects.

Igloo Vision

An Igloo immersive space is a bit like stepping inside a giant VR headset – except you can get groups inside. Any kind of digital content can be shown on the walls of one of these spaces.

The Igloo software can take any kind of immersive content - 360° images, videos, interactive apps, and so on – and put it in a space that anyone can use. But it’s not just about VR. Everyday digital applications and tools s, like PowerPoint or Zoom, can be used inside an Igloo. And the Igloo immersive video conferencing setup means colleagues all over the world can join in.
