Fun and Learning With ClassVR Continues!

Thanks to Sarah Thomas from Maple Lake Elementary for the photos!

This program is funded in part with a grant from the Minnesota Department of Education using federal funding, CFDA 45.310 – Library Services and Technology Act, Grants to States Program (LS-00-19-0024-19).

Last week, we held an all-day training at CMLE for our member school libraries to learn how to use our ClassVR headset devices. (Huge thank-you to LSTA and the MN Dept of Ed for this grant!)

Thank you to all the members that took time to join us! Many attendees had already reserved their kits for the month of February and were able to take the kits back to their schools after training. It has been SO exciting to hear feedback already from how students are enjoying the headsets!

If you are in a CMLE member school library and haven’t reserved your kit yet, don’t worry! We still have SOME availability for April and May, and are happy to let you make reservations for the upcoming school year, too. Find the application here.

We will be holding another training session on June 11th, so mark your calendars if you’d like to join us to learn how to best use the devices when you bring them to your school! More information about the program can be found on our page.

As a reminder – this is a FREE program! We are so pleased to share this technology with our members.

Our program to bring ClassVR headsets to our school library members has been gaining steam and it’s so exciting to see all the ways our school members plan to use the devices! There are so many ways to incorporate the images, videos, and 3D models into your curriculum.
