Collaborative virtual gallery curating student work

Year 12 · 200 min · 1 device per student

The class collaboratively builds a virtual 3D gallery space curating their A-Level portfolio work. Each student designs one room of the gallery, selecting their own works plus two pieces from classmates' portfolios with curatorial rationale. The class navigates the gallery during a launch event and writes critical responses to other rooms.
