Common Sense Education recently reviewed our virtual reality lab practice game show, HoloLAB Champions. As a result of the review, the organization rated the game 4 out of 5 stars, giving the game the recognition as a 2018 Top Pick for Learning.
Here is an excerpt of the review:
HoloLAB Champions is an excellent example of what virtual reality can bring to education. Students can safely experiment, play, fail, and succeed in VR in a way that cannot be done in real life. These successes and failures will certainly lead to learning that will increase competence, efficiency, and understanding in the real-world lab. Players are taught how to use Bunsen burners, tare scales, pipettes, and other common chemistry lab equipment.
The game was ranked across three categories- Engagement, Pedagogy, and Support. In terms of Engagement, the reviewer noted:
HoloLAB Champions is as engaging as it gets. Teachers would be hard pressed to find a student that didn't enjoy chemistry gamified.
HoloLAB Champions remains free for educators as long as they fill out the form on its website. Good job, team!
