“We are excited to make this type of learning accessible to the trucking industry because carriers will reap the learning benefits for all learners and ultimately improve safety and save lives,” said Dr. Gina Anderson, co-founder and CEO of Luma Brighter Learning. “From a learning perspective, it is imperative to create educational experiences that meet the physiological needs of human beings. To align with physiological needs, learning must be engaging, relevant, meaningful, and applicable to the learner’s specific needs. Not only does Luma Immersion support these needs, but it is also easy to use as a cell phone is all that is required.”

Luma Immersion draws on the principles of immersive learning, an advanced form of a learning environment where technology brings the learner as close to the real environment as possible. The product allows for users to experience well-documented learning benefits of immersive learning, including: creating immediate relevance by providing exposure to learning in the simulated environment; an experience that reinforces concepts; and a self-controlled pace in a personalized, controlled environment with interpolated assessments.

This learning approach benefits the trucking industry because it saves training time and money, there are no additional technologies or skills required, and it give instructors a more impactful method to use when training learners.
