Blue Planet Environmental Solution’s Education to Action (EdAct) platform, Blue Nudge, recently launched an innovative Environmental Studies Programme, integrating Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies into the teaching methodology.
The programme is designed to provide students from diverse backgrounds with the knowledge and skills necessary to become active advocates for a sustainable future. Through a combination of online modules and community engagement activities, the programme seeks to empower students to make meaningful contributions to the fight against climate change.
In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the programme, Blue Nudge held a three-day “Climate Change” workshop at DAV Faridabad. Here, 30 students from classes 6 to 8 were introduced to the atmosphere and planet, as well as pollution-related issues. The workshop also incorporated augmented reality tools, allowing students to experience an immersive and transformative learning experience.
Speaking about the development, Co-founder & CEO of Blue Nudge, Harsh Mehrotra, said: “At Blue Nudge, we believe in harnessing the power of technology to inspire and educate the next generation of environmental leaders. Our program goes beyond traditional teaching methods, offering students a dynamic and interactive platform to engage with crucial topics like climate change mitigation and sustainable practices. We are excited to contribute to the education landscape by offering a program that educates and inspires students to participate actively in the global sustainability movement.”
The programme also provides students with the opportunity to gain exposure to various national and international opportunities, which can help them to develop both academically and professionally. Moreover, the programme encourages students to adopt sustainability as part of their lifestyle and to promote it to their families.
