Our take on Kolb Antarctica Experience
Rather than using adventure conventions such as combat, exploration rewards, or character progression, this experience frames Antarctica as a guided learning activity. Its structure replaces conventional game objectives with a research task, staged resources, and questions connected to science and geography.
What is Kolb Antarctica Experience?
This virtual reality experience places students in an Antarctic setting for an educational activity combining science and geography.
A scientist introduces the environment, explains the presence and role of researchers, discusses ecological significance, and outlines activities carried out there. Students are then asked to photograph a penguin for research purposes. Resources appear during the experience, requiring students to examine the setting, apply the materials provided, and solve problems. The activity presents a simulated day in the life of an Antarctic scientist and applies Kolb’s experiential learning method. It is intended to support Department of Education curriculum learning and introduce students to technology in connection with STEM-related subjects.
