Research supports that when students are engaged, motivated, and immersed in an experience, their ability to retain information increases significantly. Our team of GYTO Engagement-Makers will fully transform a traditional learning space into their very own Engagement Lab™ that will bring lessons to life in an interactive environment with endless possibilities. This full transformation includes 30+ interactive scenes and experiences to transform any lesson in the click of a button...literally.
Unlimited Room Transformations with just the click of a mouse.
The Get Your Teach On team will work with you every step of the way to design, customize, and install an all-new GYTO Engagement Lab™ in your school! Every detail will be handled from start to finish, giving your teachers the resources and training needed to roll out new Room Transformations in minutes - not hours or days! Plus, because this combines new technology and professional development, there are a wide variety of funding sources to implement this in your school!

How It Works
Our Engagement Labs™ are designed to be simple to implement and even simpler to operate!
These high-tech, but easy to operate, labs utilize multiple classroom-style projectors, LED lighting, speakers, and a computer to tie it all together. We provide you with a template (Canva, PowerPoint, or video file), and your teachers can be as creative as they want!
Once you have your room transformation artwork, new scenes can be created in a matter of minutes. Even better, you can switch between Room Transformations (scenes) within seconds!
The Process
➊ Consultation
The GYTO Team will work with school leadership to develop a custom Engagement Lab™ plan for your school. This includes identifying the room, gathering measurements and photos, and identifying a date for the installation and training. We recommend using a former computer lab or project room for the space.
➋ Prep Work & Installation
Once we have an installation date picked, the school’s custodial/maintenance team will need to clear the room, and prep the walls. If this isn’t an option, we can can do it for you! We’ll work closely with the maintenance team to mount our projectors and additional hardware.
➌ Expert Training & Professional Development
The final and best step! Not only will we train your teachers on the system, they will participate in an engaging and meaningful professional development workshop led by our expert presenters. This workshop will give your teachers best practices and strategies to creating engaging and rigorous lessons for your students!
Professional Development
Detailed On-Site Training
Teachers and staff at your school will receive their very own Engagement Lab™ training on how to take their grade level standards and bring them to life in an Engagement Lab experience. This training will leave teachers with the tools to take student learning to new heights.
Classroom Model Lessons
It's time to see engagement in action! The GYTO Team will conduct model lessons in grade level classrooms with students at your school site. Teachers will get to see engagement best practices and techniques modeled in real time with students.
Lesson Implementation
This interactive and hands-on implementation workshop will walk teachers and instructional staff through the process of taking standards and turning them into experiences in their new space. Teachers will take their current grade level standards and work collaboratively with grade level teams to transform instruction like never before.
