This platform, developed by Spanish technology firm Paradox Team, incorporates cutting edge technologies for learning into its latest applications, such as augmented reality and videogames.

Paradox Team is the designer of Zientia, a tool which applies technology that is used in videogames. It is based on an interactive form of teaching which converts learning into a three-dimensional environment that is more visual.

Zientia offers solutions for all levels of education—pre-school, elementary and secondary schooling—with differential applications that take advantage of the latest technology. Another of its key characteristics is flexibility, given the platform adapts itself to individual households by taking advantage of the devices available and also provides content in different languages.

The platform is much more than the simple digitalization of text. It is based on continual research and incorporates new technologies which provide effective solutions for the devices that people use today, and will adapt itself for those that people use in the future. Near term the incorporation of new devices will be decisive, such as augmented reality glasses and interactive gesture technology.

Currently it offers applications for chemistry, geometry and anatomy; soon it will be expanded, thanks to the expert advice of specialists in each subject, and collaboration and suggestions from students.
