An integrated learning system provides for progressive education for children through a virtual world, an individualized journal and an educator dashboard with real time updates. The system includes an extended reality (XR) enabled device and a computer or tablet for the student(s), a remote server, and a computer for the instructor. The extended reality supports deeper learning and provides differentiated assessment via a dashboard that tracks movement within the system to measure learning and progress. The system updates in real time with the student's progress (responses, interactions, time spent on page), includes a teacher-student messaging system, and enables the student to re-enter the virtual environment at the same point or allow the student to progress to different points based upon events in the virtual environment or the outcomes of choices made in the digital journal.
