WHO WE AREMegaMinds is an all-in-one instructional tool that makes it easy for teachers to create and share virtual world lessons that drive student engagement, and provide students with enhanced learning experiences that improve learning outcomes. Think of us as a Roblox, but built specifically for education. 
WHAT WE DOOur platform translates a teacher’s real world lessons, worksheets and activities into 3D immersive environments. It’s akin to being able to make your own personal Roblox game for your students just by dragging and dropping your content into our 3D templates. You can make your lessons interactive and collaborative, spark students' creativity and motivation, create meaningful engagement, and meet students where they want to learn.  
Our platform is very pedagogically flexible and is suitable for a variety different methods and use cases; front-of-class, student paced, interactive work station, project-based assignments and more. And because it's designed to be used asynchronously as well, teachers can foster a continual opportunity for learning inside the classroom and at home.
Please visit our 'How It Works' page to learn more!
IS IT EFFECTIVE?You bet it is! Research clearly shows that improved learning and emotional experiences in virtual worlds result in better learning outcomes. Teachers from our user trials reported 'sky high levels of engagement' and students that even asked to do their homework in MegaMinds.
