What an exciting year it has been so far in Digital Learning. As we welcome our STEM Assistant Vincent to the College Community, we also welcome our new set of MetaQuest 3 Virtual Reality headsets! These have already proved a hit in our STEM club that runs on Fridays at lunchtime, with our aspiring engineers building bridges in the virtual space. Some even got so far as to test their bridge by driving a virtual car over it!
The Science faculty has hit the ground running with these headsets, with year 10 classes incorporating a mini-incursion to explore cell structure in the virtual space.
As a participant in the Cyber Safety Project, learner modules have been rolled out in year 7 Digital Technologies to help our students identify online threats. The project has also provided a recording of a recent webinar. The session provided practical, proactive guidance on key topics including online safety, digital wellbeing, social media, gaming, and AI.
