Part of EX3 Labs' mission as a company is maintaining a commitment to being a net giver to the city of Chicago and the technology community. This commitment has led to the foundation of the Immersive Learning Lab Mission, which provides technologies and lesson plans to Chicago Public Schools. In April of 2018, thanks to our partnership with Alight, the Immersive Learning Lab Mission was able to make its second donation to Walter H. Dyett High School.
The Immersive Learning Lab includes a variety of immersive technologies and an even wider variety of subject matter to help engage and educate students as well as a teacher's tablet to assist staff in planning and guiding lessons.
I have seen, firsthand, the impact that innovative tools like this have; increased engagement, retention, and excitement about learning."Beulah McLoyd, Dyett Principal
The lab is equipped with 30 Google Expedition Devices, which allow for guided exploration of over 750 virtual reality lesson plans. Dyett also received a Microsoft Mixed Reality Headset.
