The work of adolescence is social and emotional as teens actively seek and experience more social engagement, novelty, and creative exploration. iThrive Sim is a game engine that builds, powers, and assesses playful and interactive learning experiences that meet them where they are developmentally, supporting them with engaging social and emotional skill-building experiences.

iThrive Sim launched in 2020 as a virtual classroom-optimized tool that created engaging spaces for teen collaborative learning and play in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, a time marked by unprecedented challenges and a need for creative solutions. Since then, it has gone on to support games and inquiry-based learning experiences that have reached thousands of teens and high school students worldwide.
