Takeaways

  • Meta for Education gives educators access to Meta Horizon managed solutions for education, which help students learn through engaging virtual and mixed reality experiences.
  • Our mixed and virtual reality education offering, Meta for Education, is now available to the general public.

We’re thrilled to announce that Meta for Education, our mixed and virtual reality education offering, is now available to the general public, giving educators access to the benefits of mixed and virtual reality with Meta Quest devices using Meta Horizon managed services.

Announced in April 2024, Meta for Education is designed to give educators, trainers and administrators access to a range of education-specific apps and features that help students learn through immersive experiences they might not otherwise be able to access.

The Educational Benefits of MR and VR

Mixed and virtual reality education has the potential to transform the way we learn and teach. Thanks to their immersive nature, virtual and mixed reality can give students hands-on, interactive experiences that wouldn’t be possible otherwise. Whether exploring the molecular structure of a chemical compound or getting a front-row seat to epoch-defining historical events, headsets like Meta Quest 3 and 3S open up exciting new possibilities for a truly memorable lesson plan.

Across 83 Inspired Education Group schools already using immersive technology in the classroom, 90% of students reported increased engagement and interest in their lessons, along with a 25% boost in confidence in their knowledge. Additionally, 85% of teachers found virtual and mixed reality to be a valuable tool to enhance their teaching. Students also experienced a 15% improvement in their academic performance on multiple-choice assessments.

What is Meta for Education?

Built on the successful foundation of our enterprise solution for work, Meta for Education is now offering a Meta Quest headset and a subscription to Meta Horizon managed solutions for education. This bundle is designed to give students access to an immersive learning experience that keeps educators in control.

Serving as a platform for interactive and engaging third-party content that aims to make learning more enjoyable and effective, Meta for Education provides access to a range of subjects including science, history and language arts. We believe it represents a significant step forward in the use of immersive technology in education, with enormous potential to transform the way we learn and teach.

Our Beta Program

We partnered with over a dozen participating colleges and universities across the US and UK through our beta program – including Savannah College of Art & Design, Imperial College London, Morehouse College, University of Michigan and more – gathering valuable feedback to help improve our product. Educators in the beta found that virtual and mixed reality made educational content more memorable for students and helped educators to explain and demonstrate complex concepts.

“We’re not replacing things that we can do in person…we’re empowering students to do things that would be out of reach otherwise,” said San Diego State University Senior Director of Instructional Technology Dr. Sean Hauze.

Meta for Education represents a significant leap forward in educational technology, and we’re excited to continue offering new, immersive ways for educators and students to engage and interact beyond the physical world.
