Prisms of Reality

** SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED (US $23.99/year)**

Prisms launched to schools around the US in 2021 to bring problem-driven, tactile, and visual learning to the Math classroom. Our teachers and students were the first to learn math in a whole new way, and now anyone in the world can too! In Prisms, users gain math skills through:

  • Experiencing and solving important real-world problems
  • Using hands-on models to visualize and interact with structure
  • Connecting 3D experiences to abstract representations like graphs, tables (2D), and equations / vocabulary (1D)

Prisms has 3 key components:

  • VR content modules for students to deepen their understanding of core concepts
  • A multiplayer sandbox for additional practice problems
  • Teaching materials to support efficacious learning. Contact us at [email protected] to gain access to these resources. A web-based dashboard is also available for our school district partners.

Topics:

Middle School- Fractions; Ratios; Rate of Change; Probability; Surface Area

Algebra I- Linear Functions; Systems of Equations; Quadratics; Linear Regression; Exponential Functions

Geometry- Transformations; Distance Formula; Trig Ratios; Circles; Solids of Rotation

Advanced Algebra- Periodic Functions; Complex Numbers; Polar Coordinates; Vector Addition; Ellipses; Matrices

After completing modules, you can jump into our multiplayer sandbox for practice. We’ve started with Middle School and Algebra for now!

*For ages 13 and up

Unable to use

I have two headsets under the same meta account. One for my daughter and for myself. I purchased the subscription on one. I am unable to buy a new subscription on another, nor I am able to continue without. I wanted to create a multi-player session to help if needed. Now I am unsure how to contact for help

Education as it should be

Amazing! The days of giving someone a VR headset and have them learn any topic in the coolest possible classroom in the world are here, starting with 8-12 grade Math. Each lesson has been beautifully built up by starting with a real-life problem (why do I need this? Something that's often missing in the "real school") and then learning the topic in small manageable pieces, with lots of interaction. There are 21 modules at launch, plus a few multiplayer spaces. It's $24 for an annual subscription, with free content and further improvements surely coming. Great job, I can't wait for more, and will recommend it excitedly to everyone learning Math! 👏

How do I cancel the free trial??

There’s no way for me to cancel the 7 day trial and my card getting charged after 7 days. Please help me out here.

Math like I always wanted it to be!

My kiddo learns viscerally - while she is good at math - Prisms VR gave her an understanding that stuck, deepening her knowledge and giving her the confidence to tackle Algebra II. I cannot recommend Prisms enough. Also, now I don't feel guilty about buying that VR headset. It's getting used for more than Beat Saber. #education #educationforthewin

could be simpler and more efficient

I really like this app, but sometimes I feel like there is too much talking before getting to the math part. The truth is that, given a choice, my kids would play on their Nintendo rather than spend an hour on this app. The only way they'll do any real work and won't give up when the game part ends and the math part begins is if I supervise them, and I don't have time to listen to a lengthy story about a farmer and his flies, then start all over again with the other kid. Either we play, or we study. Either we eat broccoli or we eat chocolate. The chocolate-covered broccoli edutainment approach ends being painful for all parties involved. What I liked the best is the manipulation of terms from one side on an equation to the other and the manipulation of graphed functions. This kind of VR simulation of mental operations is really helpful, kids found it intuitive, and I would have liked to see a bunch of drills to help kids master mathematical skills. We do the drills, master the math, and 30 min later everybody is free to go. Finally, I don't like the subscription model, although it's not that expensive. I'd rather buy the modules I need.
