Becoming Every Teacher’s Aide

“Who in the world am I? Ah, that’s the great puzzle.” ― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

Classrooms across the country are lagging behind, watching technological innovations pass them by. Revolutionary tools for education are in sight but continue to elude those that would generate the strongest impact. More than ever, there is a focus on passionate educators and struggling students who are pining for additional resources. Unofrtunately, tight budgets are quick to crush any hope. The result? Teachers are forced to insufficiently educate, as their time and resources are stretched far too thin. Performance in the classroom is diluted and students are left facing the consequences. Across the board, our educators need help. Leap With Alice provides tools that every teacher can use — not just the tech savvy futurists of the faculty.

Meet Mrs. Kennari — she was born to teach. Her passion for the craft is regularly on display, as she is constantly bringing new ideas and twists into the classroom. Generating noticeable results from her unique approach, Mrs. Kennari actively seeks ways to push her creativity further and further. Looking for inspiration, she comes across Leap With Alice and her curiosity spikes. The prospect of taking the content she already creates and enhancing it with Augmented Reality has her mind firing on all cylinders.

Entering the ALICE Laboratory, Mrs. Kennari uploads a standard lesson she created for her class. Using simple drag-and-drop tools, the content is no longer confined to a piece of paper. Leap With Alice’s AR enhancement tools empower Mrs. Kennari to turn her classroom into an immersive learning environment. What had once been a simple chart breaking down the planet Neptune has transformed into an interactive 3D model. Students can zoom in and out, viewing the planet from different perspectives. Opening the planet up, students learn details about the layers composing the planet. This lesson evolves from a simple read and retain approach to educational material that deeply engages the classroom.

While Mrs. Kennari represents the level at which we would love all users to engage, not every teacher has the time or drive to create. Too many educators experience the strife of Mr. Athro, a single father that struggles to support his family on a teacher’s salary. In order to provide, he is forced to work a second job. The balance of work and family is a constant battle, one that Mr. Athro appears to be losing. His passion rests in education but a diluted performance in the classroom is detrimental to himself, his family, and his students.

Drifting in and out of conversation with his peers, Mr. Athro overhears a fellow educator mention Leap With Alice. The ability to create AR content isn’t what grabs his attention, it’s the ALICE Exchange — “…a library full of educational content and lesson plans created by other teachers that have been enhanced with Augmented Reality. Instead of spending time producing my own material, I just bring those lessons into class. We fire up the Leap With Alice app, turn on the ALICE Lens and the students go crazy for it. It saves hours of time and my class has never engaged more actively!”

Despite interacting on a basic level, Mr. Athro has discovered a way to improve his classroom and establish a better work/life balance. With additional time, Mr. Athro has the potential to increase his role within the Leap With Alice community. Incentivizing activity may catch his eye, the way that it did with our next educator, Mr. Magister.

Student loans have forced Mr. Magister to work an exhausting schedule of multiple jobs, taking him from early hours of the morning to late hours into the night. Young, single, and restricted from experiencing any form of a social life, Mr. Magister is desperate to find a way to passively supplement his income. Searching far and wide, he comes across Leap With Alice. The math adds up…he can take a library of generic content, use Leap With Alice’s free enhancement tools, and sell the finished product in the ALICE Exchange, generating a stream of passive compensation.

ALICE tokens begin to flow into Mr. Magister’s wallet after other educators purchase his enhanced content. On top of the tokens received from the sales, he notices there are additional ALICE tokens. Thanks to other users and their glowing reviews, Mr. Magister has earned ALICE tokens from the Extra Credit Pool (a reserve of ALICE tokens set up to incentivize quality contributions within the Leap With Alice community).

All individual contributions within the Leap With Alice community are measured, establishing each user’s reputation. Fueled by incentives, Mr. Magister initiates a snowball effect that will allow his stream of ALICE tokens to steadily grow. An active curator of content, he earns Extra Credit from simply “liking” content or engaging the community with a thoughtful review. The level at which he earns Extra Credit continues to rise with his reputation. An initial quest for passive income transitioned into an active user; an educator who plays a pivotal role within the Leap With Alice community, ensuring that quality content rises to the top.

Leap With Alice has the ability to become the teacher’s aide in every classroom. With a vision of truly disrupting the education system as we know it, Leap With Alice aims to become the tool used by parents and teachers to harness each student’s educational superpower. All students have the ability to learn on a high level — Leap With Alice will provide the key that unlocks the path to their full potential.
