K12's Approach to Immersive Learning K12 is a national leader in virtual education, serving more than three million students over the past 25 years. American History Museum is part of K12's broader approach to immersive learning, using play, exploration and feedback to help students engage with complex chapters of history. Students use the experience to reinforce U.S. history coursework, exploring independently at their own pace. Across its exhibits, students move through immersive recreations of key moments in American history, from Indigenous rights to the balance of power between government and industry.

Each exhibit aligns with specific lessons and grade-level standards, with assignments that also check understanding before students unlock the next 3D artifact.
