Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

The participants will take away several digital challenges to bring back to their district. All learners will engage in a competition that will require teamwork, problem-solving and out of the box thinking. The primary goal is for participants to learn different ways to approach professional development and learn augmented and virtual Reality resources. While we will discuss BreakoutEDU, we will also cover other relevant resources to bring back to the classroom immediately.

Outline

(15 minutes)
Begin- We will begin with a brief introduction of Breakout EDU. An explanation of how Breakout EDU was modified to include technology will be explained.
(40 minutes)
Activity- The interactive centers will include challenges that must be solved in a specific amount of time to be ready for the next center. While only the answer needs to be solved in each center, resources for groups to explore AR/VR apps further will be available.
(15 minutes)
Finish- The groups will compile all their answers to join in a Nearpod VR lesson.
