The European Space Agency (ESA) recently released Spaceflight Challenge 1 – a 3D teaching tool for classroom use. Students work their way through several mission scenarios inside and outside the International Space Station, completing computer-based exercises related to the European curricula. Read more on the ESA website.
d'Overbroeck's Head of Chemistry Max Parsonage worked as a consultant in the development of the software, assisting in the design and construction of the educational components. He also designed many of the activities, and wrote or edited the text.
Also involved were Chris Carter (Maths) and Adam Johnstone (Biology).
The software has been translated into 12 languages, and is available to schools in all EU member countries.
