Case Study: South Dakota State University expands rural XR learning with ArborXR

South Dakota State University boosts anatomy exam scores by 5-10 points with ArborXR

South Dakota State University (SDSU) faced the challenge of providing cutting-edge educational experiences across the vast, rural state of South Dakota, where geographical barriers and limited technological infrastructure in K-12 schools restricted student access. To overcome this, they partnered with vendor ArborXR to help manage a large-scale deployment of VR headsets for immersive learning.

Using ArborXR's mobile device management (MDM) platform and Kiosk Mode, SDSU efficiently managed over 200 headsets for both university courses and a mobile VR lab that visited local schools. This solution yielded measurable results, including a study showing anatomy students scored 5-10 points higher on exams when using VR before traditional training. ArborXR's tools enabled the university to scale its program securely and focus on its educational mission.
