WISE: Emotional Fitness

Improving the emotional fitness of educators, parents and students from the inside out.

You know how 93% of teachers want a greater focus on SEL in schools? Well WISE: Emotional Fitness helps school communities that want to train students, parents, and teachers by reducing barriers to learning and increasing engagement and retention. We invite parents back to school so they can learn with their children through the immersive WISE VR ecosystem.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

To teach practical skills for regulating emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors and making better decisions. To provide participants with a strong understanding of the key emotion regulation concepts, which are founded in evidence-based research and contemporary teaching strategies. Like learning to throw a ball or riding a bike, this method allows individuals to explore, experience and practice.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

Wise approaches learning from the Inside-Out to equip participants with
the practical skills to build strong connections from themselves (Inside) to
others and the world around them (Outside).

This is enhanced by the blended learning context whereby learning within
VR (Inside) is reinforced through the verbal and written self-reflective
process, and teaching others the techniques (Outside). A 9-week program,
with one lesson a week, each lesson running between 45-minutes to 1.5
hours with a VR headset and respective guide book in hand.

How has it been spreading?

Via word-of-mouth of existing users and listeners of certain podcasts, as well as through lead generation programs
