The 2024 STEM Creative Contest, launched by Panasonic Vietnam and partners on April 17th, 2024 in Hanoi, aims to encourage Vietnamese students to embrace STEM learning through immersive experience. This is the opportunity for “little scientists” to learn STEM topics through the immersive experience with Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies, while practicing their 21st century skills including project execution, collaboration and building their network with peers who share the same passion in STEM.
More details about the STEM creative contest can be found on the fan page of Panasonic Risupia Vietnam and showcased in this video.
The 2024 STEM Creative Contest is one activity under the “Panasonic for Sustainable Schools”, a free-for-use social program launched by Panasonic Vietnam in April 2022, inheriting from and building on the 20 years of Panasonic Risupia experience. The program objectives is to increase opportunities to experience STEM/STEAM for Vietnamese students, to enrich experiential STEM learning that is aligned with Vietnam’s 2018 National General Education Program. The program contributes to realizing Panasonic’s vision of sustainable development through developing future generations.
In April 2024, Panasonic for Sustainable Schools launched an immersive portal for STEM learning at AR/VR Digital Library for STEM Experiences by Panasonic Vietnam. Students have access to multiple STEM concepts through stimulating AR and VR immersion.
Speaking at the launch event, Mr. Do Hoang Son from Vietnam STEM Alliance, shared: “By fostering creativity in STEM and STEM experiences on Digital platform have opened a new approach to promoting STEM education in Vietnam, bringing STEM knowledge closer to students across Vietnam.”
The Vietnam Association for Nonpublic Preschool Education (VANPPE) applauds and supports corporate initiatives like the Panasonic 2024 STEM Creative Contest and encourages participation from kindergarten teachers and students in the contest.
This contest and the AR/VR Digital Library for STEM Experiences by Panasonic Vietnam provides engaging, guided learning opportunities in STEM topics for preschool students thanks to age-relevant immersive technologies like Augmented Reality (AR). The Panasonic AR/VR Digital Library for STEM experiences truly offers opportunity for all Vietnamese students, teachers, schools, and parents to access and experience STEM in the most convenient way.
