community, VR is used as a training tool to expose high-risk andchallenging situations to novice health personnel (Liu et al., 2003). In the construction sector,architects and interiors designers use virtual reality before building, to analyze systems andinteractions (Mobach, 2008). In the educational sector, virtual reality is used to demonstrate andfacilitate learning in a flexible and efficient manner. According to Yildirim et al. (2020), VRcan positively benefit students to develop spatial skills and can increase students' engagementtowards learning different subjects, including science, technology, engineering and math(STEM). In consideration of these benefits, this project incorporates active learning strategiesand VR as an instructional

Lisa has also worked with faculty to develop active and project-based learning techniques, including a focus on STEM and social justice, through conferences, workshops, and individual consultations. Lisa has published a number of book chapters and articles that focus on food, environmental, and social justice, particularly in the area of livestock production in the rural southern United States.

Those schoolswith less experiential learning courses tended to feature more courses where students learnedconcepts and demonstrated competence through traditional exercises like problem sets andexams. Engineering educators have steadily incorporated problem-based learning exercises,projects and capstone experiences into undergraduate engineering education. Problem-basedLearning (PBL) has been one technique introduced in order to bring ‘real life’ problems into theclassroom. Those educational exercises, particularly PBL, emphasize information-seeking as askill that will be developed through participation in the exercise.

Students at an alternative learning center that outperformed learningexpectations set by SES identified several factors to their persistence in school, includingconnecting to real life issues, student autonomy, and a relaxed environment where their inputwas valued [9]. This suggests that offering a similarly non-competitive, constructiveenvironment for exploration of STEM can be an empowering strategy to increase studentengagement.To this end, project-based learning (PBL) may synergize with, or contribute to, a positiveclassroom culture.
