Background:
Tulsa Public Schools (“TPS”) is the largest school district in northeastern Oklahoma. The District contributes significantly to the economic base of the area, employing 6,500 employees. Approximately 38,000 students were enrolled in over 55 elementary/Pre-K schools, 11 middle and junior high schools, and 9 senior high schools as well as over 15 special programs around the District. TPS engaged imaginX to install a virtual/augmented reality lab at Nathan Hale High School, including materials and installations. The project was initiated under the vision and leadership of Nathan Hale’s Principal, Dr. Sheila Riley, who envisioned a world where students can leverage the best of what teachers offer and combine it with the latest in what technology and innovation can provide. Dr. Riley’s vision has been in perfect alignment with imaginX that believes that immersive learning does not replace human interaction; rather, it enhances human and social interaction.
