Engage Students with Our VR Science Mystery Investigation Ex...

The brief 🧠:

The challenge was making science genuinely engaging for students — not through videos or textbooks, but through direct participation. The experience needed to teach real investigative techniques while keeping students invested in the outcome from start to finish.

What we built 🚀:

Next built a VR mystery investigation guided by Millie, an intelligent robot, set on a "bring your robot to school" day. Students apply biometrics, DNA barcoding, and colorimetry to identify which robot ate a jelly donut — every technique has a purpose, every clue has a consequence, and the answer only emerges when all the science is applied correctly.
