  • Inland+Learning
    Founder/Ceo
    Inland+Learning Sep 2011 - Sep 2013
    Coeur D'Alene, Idaho
    Outside of school, kids live for video games; it’s just a fact of life. Our mission is to provide immersive tools that enables teachers to engage students in new and exciting ways and while enhancing curriculum and transforming the learning experience. We tap into kids’ affinity for cyber world reality and allow them to learn what they live in-game.They immerse themselves in cyber worlds rendered entirely by computers where they interact with other human players and non-human characters. Kids form teams in-game to learn strategy, complete missions, and gain rewards. Using the same tools big game companies used to develop blockbusters hits like “Halo” and “Call-Of-Duty”, we created similar immersive experiences for education. In less than 24 months, at a fraction of the cost typically seen by big game studios, Scott successfully produced a game platform with content, and drove the efforts that resulted in a 4 school/300 student beta. Scott was responsible for day-to-day operations, as well as product and curriculum development. Inalnd+Learning is the fusion of educators, principals, game developers, philanthropists, entrepreneurs and experienced managers. The revolution will not be televised. It will be gamified.
