CoSpaces!

BRIC can introduce teachers and students to CoSpaces, an online 3d-environment creator that works on most devices (including iPads/Chromebooks!) With this powerful platform, students can create immersive and creative content in a highly-engaging way, and can even explore block coding (or Python/Typescript!) Learners can also collaborate and work on the same project simultaneously, and view their projects in VR/AR.

Does your school have unused STEAM kits/technology sitting in a work closet somewhere? We can work with you to learn how to utilize those tools!
