BSB Students heading to 2023 XR Asia Cup Challenge

The 2023 XR Asia Cup Challenge will be hosted by The International School of Tianjin in collaboration with the Global Association for Immersive Learning Advancement (GAILA) from 4^th May to 6^th May. This event aims to promote innovative teaching and learning practices through the use of Extended Reality (XR) technology, while also fostering the development of computational and innovative thinking competencies among students of all ages.

Among the participants are two talented BSB Shunyi Year 12 Computer Science students, Nicholas Liu and Felix Mubei Höhne, who are highly interested in technology and have a passion for learning. They are excited to showcase their creativity and innovation in using XR technology, as well as to learn from their peers and experts in the field.

Nicolas and Felix are confident that their IB Diploma education has equipped them with the necessary skills and mindset to excel in this event and beyond. They embody various IB learner profile attributes such as being open-minded, inquirers, thinkers, communicators, and reflective.

Their open-mindedness is evident in their willingness to explore new and cutting-edge technologies, and their inquiring minds drive them to continuously seek new knowledge and understanding. Their analytical and critical thinking skills enable them to approach complex problems in a logical and systematic manner, while their effective communication skills allow them to collaborate effectively with others.

Nicholas and Felix's reflective nature is also an important aspect of their learning. They are constantly evaluating their progress and seeking ways to improve their skills and understanding, while also being receptive to constructive feedback from their teachers and peers.

The XR Asia Cup Challenge promises to be an exciting and engaging event for all involved, and BSB is proud to have Nicholas and Felix represent our school in this event. We wish them the best of luck and look forward to seeing the amazing things that our young learners will create.
