Meta is making it easier to bring Quest headsets into the classroom

The Verge · 1y

Meta is set to launch a new educational hub for its Quest headsets, aimed at making it easier for educators to use the devices in schools. The hub will provide access to education-specific apps and features, along with management tools for all Quest headsets in the classroom. The goal is to enhance learning experiences by allowing students to learn, apply, and practice new skills, as well as explore virtual environments that would otherwise be inaccessible. However, the affordability of Meta's program may hinder widespread adoption, as it will only be available to schools serving students aged 13 and older in markets where Meta's Quest for Business subscription is supported.
