Project Description: Mangrove City is an immersive VR application, complemented by a robust STEM classroom curriculum, that transports middle school students into the heart of mangrove forests. This educational experience deepens their understanding of mangrove ecology and inspires a vision of harmonious coexistence with these vital ecosystems. Students navigating through the dynamic virtual forest will encounter educational mini-games with interactive activities. Additionally, the virtual Mangrove City serves as a compelling example, encouraging students to consider careers in STEM fields dedicated to preserving and innovatively interacting with these crucial natural environments.
