Classroom Wishes Come True with KCTC's Tech for Teachers
From 3D printers to virtual reality headsets to programmable robots and so much more, our team has had the pleasure of supporting 12 classrooms around the Kansas City area with tech-related wishlist items for the 2022-2023 school year!
A huge thank you to VMLY&R for supporting the Tech for Teachers initiative and making our dream of promoting early exposure to technology while alleviating teachers' financial burdens possible.
“My students have been putting the Meta Quest to use immediately to develop and test VR environments using Unity, Blender, and additional tools that they have found for VR development,” said Deanna Soukup, educator at Lee’s Summit West High School. “The advantages of incorporating the Quest and other cutting-edge technology into my classes' learning plans is that it allows the students to pursue real-world passion projects that are relevant and meaningful to them. Students' motivation to learn computer science is very high when they are applying those concepts to developing projects for current and cutting-edge technology that they use in the real world.”
