Recently, WCCO-TV reporter, John Lauritsen, along with MECC Founder, DaleDale LaFrenz, told viewers the story of Oregon Trail™ and how it “immersed” K12 learners back in those bygone days. Click on his icon for the report.

The_Oregon_Trail_coverStudents who played Oregon Trail™ on their computers learned how to survive and make it all the way to their Oregon goal. They loved playing the game, and many still play it:

The good news is that RE@L will release a new learning product this year that puts students in charge of a far better understanding of what “Know Smoking” means. Vaping too.

WaterQualityMore RE@L STEM-based learning products coming soon to schools near you!
