EStars believe that the words of John Dewey, some 100 years ago still ring true today:
“If we teach today's students as we taught yesterday's, we rob them of tomorrow.”

EStars Classroom of the Future
Education is changing faster than ever, and our classrooms
need to keep up. Imagine a learning space where students
aren’t just reading about history—they’re walking through
ancient Rome. Where science lessons don’t just explain the
solar system—they take students on a journey through the
stars. Instead of static whiteboards and traditional desks, we
can make a classroom a fully interactive space. High-resolution
LED walls, floors and ceilings transform the environment, taking
students anywhere in the world (and beyond).
Why it’s a Game-Changer for Students and Teachers
Recent knowledge from EStars has shown that students
learning in the Classroom of the Future have experienced up
to 20% increase in learning outcomes compared to traditional
methods. This significant improvement highlights the power of
immersive education in boosting comprehension and
retention.
For students, this immersive experience turns learning into an
adventure. Difficult subjects become easier to grasp because
they can see, feel and experience them. In biology, walking
through a human cell or watching an AI-powered Shakespeare
actor bring literature to life, the lessons become memorable
and impactful.
For Teachers
It’s a revolution in engagement. Instead of relying on textbooks
and slideshows, educators can create fully customised lessons
that students actively participate in. Teachers also have
complete control over AI-powered interactions, ensuring a
balanced blend of technology and traditional teaching
methods.
Where Education Meets Innovation
Parents want the best for their children, and the Classroom of
the Future offers something no traditional school can—global
learning without leaving the room. Field trips to historic sites,
space stations, or even inside the human body are all possible,
making expensive travel unnecessary.
For schools, this technology is an investment in the future.
Lessons are reusable, reducing material costs.
