Austin-based edtech startup StudentVerse is creating a school-centric metaverse for students that can be used in physical classrooms or for distant learning.
The metaverse is optimized to run on school-provided computers and will be accessible to more people than expensive high-tech gadgets.
StudentVerse is developing a gamified curriculum that rewards students for participation, good grades, and other activities.
- Students can use coins earned to upgrade their avatars.
- The platform is customizable for different school districts with varying curricula.
- The metaverse can also teach real-life skills that can't be learned from books.
- The edtech startup is developing a go-to-market plan for the platform.
- StudentVerse is looking to raise its first seed funding round in the spring of 2023.
