View company profile

Prisms of Reality is revolutionizing K-12 STEM education through its innovative spatial learning platform that leverages virtual reality technology to transform how students engage with math and science concepts. Founded in 2020 by Anurupa Ganguly, an MIT-trained engineer who spent over a decade teaching and leading curriculum in major US school districts, Prisms was born from a fundamental belief that traditional flat, two-dimensional teaching methods fail to prepare students for a complex, multimodal world.

The company's groundbreaking approach places students as first-person actors in immersive virtual environments where they experience real-world problems kinesthetically and emotionally before abstracting up to symbolic notation and formal mathematical frameworks. Rather than memorizing equations, students discover abstract concepts through embodied experiences - watching a virus spread in a food court to understand exponential growth, or visiting a landfill to explore linear regression. This methodology, inspired by research showing that spatial reasoning is among the top indicators of success in mathematical sciences, creates deep, lasting connections that traditional instruction cannot achieve.

During the 2024-2025 academic year, thousands of educators across more than 300 US school districts in 35 states are utilizing Prisms' problem-based learning model to serve over 300,000 students in Grades 7-11 Math and Science. The comprehensive instructional system includes VR headsets, software licenses, a teacher dashboard with real-time analytics, professional development, and ongoing coaching support to ensure successful implementation and measurable outcomes for every student served.
