EduTech Demo Day

EduTech Demo Day

On July 1, we had the pleasure of inviting North Dakota’s EduTech division to our office at the NDSU Research and Technology Park. EduTech is a part of the state’s Information Technology division and helps provide IT services and educational technology professional development to K-12 educators. We took this day as a chance to train their group on how to deliver CareerViewXR content.

They tried out the web-based experiences as well as the VR video component in our VR headsets. After the EduTech crew learned the ropes, we invited outside educators and other professionals to stop by and be our test subjects for the afternoon. With their training, EduTech will be going out to schools across North Dakota to educate teachers and other faculty on how to use CareerViewXR in the classroom. We cannot wait for more educators to check out the power of the platform.

EduTech Demo Day

Big thank you to EduTech for helping us get the word out about CareerViewXR. We really appreciate all your hard work. And of course, another thank you to our testers! 

Are you interested in having EduTech bring a CareerViewXR demo to your school?
