Workshop
Connect STEM to real-world careers using virtual reality. Don't just teach students about engineering, let them experience it.
This immersive in-person workshop uses virtual reality to bring STEM subjects to life.
Students step into interactive environments where they can explore how maths and science are applied in real-world engineering contexts - from designing bridges to simulating space missions.
By becoming active participants in their learning, students gain a deeper understanding of curriculum topics and how they connect to exciting STEM careers. Never again answer the dreaded question: “When will we use this?”.
This workshop day will enrich your curriculum with ground-breaking tech, and is designed to be inclusive and engaging for all learners, making abstract concepts tangible and memorable.
