🌐 Beyond the Physical Classroom: The Future of Learning is Virtual
The rapid evolution of technology is transforming how we teach and learn. Today’s digital-native students require more than traditional methods; they thrive in ecosystems filled with interactivity and connectivity. Research shows that game-based and simulation-based learning are the keys to increasing engagement and mastering abstract concepts.
As part of the #RoadtoICIA2026, we are excited to present VIRWICA 2026—an annual international competition held within a virtual world. We are calling on university students to use their academic knowledge and creativity to bridge the educational gap by designing the next generation of digital learning tools.
