Practor Geert Jan van Ouwendorp explained the purpose of PIT, Yonder's practorate that explores how interactive technology can enrich education. By experimenting with VR, AR, AI, serious gaming and robotics, among other things, in his practorate he works with a leading group of teachers on innovative and motivating forms of learning. 🎓💡
After the plenary part, we were invited to one of the Yonder classrooms for some interesting demos. Two students from Futures Lab together with Yonder developed a (serious) game that was shown during the demos. The game helps pedagogical students engage with parents in an accessible way about possible concerns with their child.
It was interesting to hear and fun to try out the demos. Thanks to all the speakers and attendees.
