Guest Blog by Laura Pearson Raising your children is challenging at the best of times, but you should still try to ensure that they focus on self-care. Teaching your children good habits at a young age can transform the rest of their lives. However, it can be difficult to find time to prioritize self-care for kids when you’re busy with everyday life in Oneonta. Here’s how you can incorporate positive habits into your child’s everyday schedule, presented below by Learnroll Immerse. Ensure Your Children Stay Healthy and Active Children typically have lots of energy; this gives parents an excellent chance to channel that energy into physical activities. But the Centers for Disease Control found that only 24% of American youth between 6 and 17 undergo the 60-minute daily exercise recommendation. However, your children don’t have to fall into this category. You can take them to local martial arts clubs, football games, swimming classes, and gymnastics lessons to build their fitness levels and create superb habits. Find Mental Health Support for Your Kids Finding the best mental health support for your child is critical; it can heal any traumas and boost their self-image before they enter adulthood. Unfortunately, research suggests that 17.4% of American children between 2 and 8 years old suffer from diagnosed behavioral, mental, or developmental disorders. There are thousands of dedicated children’s therapists in the United States who can ensure your child develops excellent mental habits at a young age. You can also boost your child’s mental health by meditation, breathing techniques, and encouraging a daily practice of being grateful. Enhance Your Children’s Creativity Children love to be creative. Whether it’s writing short stories, drawing beautiful pictures, or building crafts, you should encourage your children to express their imagination. As a result, kids can gain a sense of purpose, become multi-disciplinary, and build problem-solving skills. Purchase Useful Toys and Games There are many toys to help your children learn. For example, you could purchase toys to help them identify different colors, encourage creativity, remember the alphabet, and build problem-solving skills. You should always read product reviews and check ratings, though. That way, you’ll know you’re purchasing high-quality products that won’t break when your kids play with them. Focus on Your Kids During Hectic Periods It can be challenging to also maintain a high priority for your children while you're building a successful career. Creating a schedule will ensure you spend enough time with your children during busy periods. Your plan could include being available for bed each night, helping your children to clean the house, reading books with your kids for 20 minutes every night, and working out with your children. Combining tasks with quality time can enable you to prioritize your children. Self-care for Kids Doesn’t Need to Be Complicated Focusing on your kid's self-care when you’re busy can feel overwhelming. At the same time, your children can build good habits if you prioritize their health and create a weekly plan and stick to it.

We organized an hands on workshop on with teachers on the basic exploratory phase on what metaverse means and various concepts and terminologies on what the metaverse is all about including the value chain of metaverse including the various working groups and how they can get value from it, in its early days. The metaverse has various definitions and lacks standardization due to many inherent technologies it may still in its early stage or its interoperability not well flushed especially those who may not be building a metaverse but want to be a value chain contributor or enable their own use cases across various "metaverse". We conducted the workshops and provided each teacher who attended the workshop with a Open badge certificate for the 2 hour workshop. The teachers were excite on potential uses and felt that the time was short and more context would have been useful in these new emerging technologies or delivery models.

Learnoll Immerse is now part of the AWS Activate programs. We have used AWS Services like S3, AWS EC2 and other voice services like Polly and Lex including front end technologies in XR (like Sumerian which has now been deprecated). We plan to use for XR and AI including use of open-source Sumerian hosts like Maya and Jay who act as our Conversational ambassadors using a secure service including support to scale in production. Babylon.js, Three.js and Aframe are some of the standard WebXR technologies that can be easily integrated to metaverse web spaces.

The Metaverse has been defined in many ways by technology companies, vertical industry and more. For larger technology companies it may mean enabling larger infrastructures, services or domains but for small businesses and startups like us it is more of a business model that includes technology as well as access to portable metaverses to enable your business model. In the current business model, most of our vision of business and the corresponding applications, stacks and more are aligned to "web or internet" that we see or know today. The protocols for interconnected metaverses will have to rely on standards or architectures of trust that not only allow portability and security, but also provide "equitable" access to various users including sustainable models that do not add to the already higher levels of climate degradation with non-sustainable or feasible models. The Standards like Metaverse Standards Forum and protocols like IPFS will play a major role in shaping the next generation Metaverse world.

Healthcare upskilling is not only important in US but also a global need and different models must be addressed to achieve competency versus "test taking" skills using immersive technologies and assessment models that not only gamify but also help in employers discover skill sets that are needed for the industry. In healthcare skilling of nursing and allied workforce is very critical due to shortage and lack of essential skills and competencies in patient care, communication and more. In developing countries like India, the problem is compounded with various languages and cultural difference across large populations. Our founder was there in the capital city and presented to the Healthcare skill lab on using various low-cost modalities that are not only engaging but also can scale using PC/mobile to various areas using low latency solutions. Micro-credential build pathways of learning using standards like Open Badges to allow short training with validated credentials that are need based. With the changing economy, cost and pandemic even large traditional institutions also have created various certificates and micro-credentials for faster and efficient training
