Welcome to iLRN-Central

iLRN-Central_floor_plan_draft2.jpg

iLRN-Central is athe 300-person capacityhub Frame asof the iLRN2026 Virtual Campus on FrameVR — the primary gathering place where participants arrive, orient, and connect with the full breadth of iLRN's research community and conference programming.

Built on the Neo Office template, iLRN-Central combines a welcoming civic atmosphere with structured spatial logic. At its center stands the Stoa — a colonnaded gallery displaying 28 thematic posters across four walls, each wall facing one of the iLRN2026campus's four directional zones. The Stoa functions as iLRN-Central's primary knowledge surface, offering every visitor an immediate, curated view of the network's work, values, and opportunities.

From iLRN-Central, participants navigate outward to the full campus hub-and-spoke system, including the Knowledge Tree, the Circle of Scholars, the Innovation Garden, iLEAD, the Haptics Café, the XRcade, the Thirsty Scholar, the Immersive Futures Lighthouse, and regional Chapter spaces.


The Stoa: Four Walls, Four Directions

The Stoa's four walls are aligned to the campus's four directional zones. Each wall carries seven posters organized around a thematic question.
