Affordably Transforming
K-12 Education
Access for all K-12 students is a key part of our mission at Curio. Totally free access to the software (i.e., no annual license fees or setup fees) means that schools/districts need only acquire the hardware, a one-time fee. This makes budgeting much simpler and allows for more devices to be purchased.
Most K-12 schools have shared laptop carts or a computer lab. It’s time to apply the same principle to 3D learning and prepare students for education at the next level. With most students now having 1:1 devices, those laptop carts can become VR carts and those computer labs can become VR labs.
Will it work for your class?
Using Meta Quest headsets along with the extended battery that we recommend – we’ve done the research for you, see our Virtual Reality Implementation Guide (VRIG) – each headset will run 6 to 9 hours before requiring an overnight charge. That means if used in 5 class periods per day, 5 days per week, that’s 25 class periods (i.e. 500+ students) that can benefit from a single rolling cart of 20 headsets.
This one-time cost equates to less than $10,000. Additionally, it’s important to note that a full classroom set is certainly not necessary to enjoy the benefits of VR/AR. Just a handful of headsets can make a huge difference in a school.
