New AI Teaching Assistant Helps Make Lesson Plans with VR Content

Virtual and augmented reality solution provider Lobaki has introduced Lobaki Liaison, an AI-powered teaching assistant designed to help educators navigate and implement VR content in their classrooms. The tool helps teachers find relevant content in Lobaki's catalog of immersive learning experiences, generate customized lesson plans, and more.

Through a conversational interface, teachers can receive personalized recommendations from Lobaki's content library spanning science, mathematics, history, and technical subjects, the company explained in a news announcement. Features of the tool include:

  • Lesson planning that aligns VR experiences with specific curriculum standards and learning objectives;
  • Implementation guidance, including step-by-step instructions for integrating VR into classroom activities; and
  • Workflows to reduce preparation time and maximize instructional impact.

"With Lobaki Liaison, we're providing a specialized AI tool focused specifically on helping teachers leverage our immersive content," said Kevin Loud, CEO of Lobaki, in a statement. "Rather than adding to their workload, we're meeting educators where they are by offering a familiar AI interface with the responsible, narrow focus of supporting our VR educational content."

Lobaki Liaison will be available to all Lobaki educational clients through a platform update in April 2025, the company said. New implementations will include the AI assistant as a standard feature. For more information, visit the Lobaki site.
