Weโre proud to be part of the ViReal4STEM project!
We are currently building an immersive VR app that will support six languages.The future of equitable STEM education is in progress!#vireal4stem #vr #Erasmus #erasmusplus #womeninscience #stem #euproject
Empowering girls in STEM with VR! Our immersive learning app is nearly readyโdesigned to inspire inclusivity & equity. Breaking barriers for underrepresented groups in science & tech. Stay tuned! ๐ #ViReal4STEM #VR #Erasmus #ErasmusPlus #WomenInScience #STEM #EUProject
๐ณ March 21st marks the International Day of Forests. In ViReal4STEM showing how research and innovative ideas can contribute to a healthier environment and sustainable agriculture. ๐ฑ #InternationalDayOfForests #STEMforFuture #Sustainability #ViReal4STEM
International Day of Happiness! Happiness in education comes when students have the opportunity to learn, explore, and develop their talents. Letโs build a happier and more inclusive future through STEM! #DayOfHappiness #ViReal4STEM #STEMeducation #InclusiveSTEM #ErasmusPlus
โจ In ViReal4STEM, weโre creating immersive VR learning experiences that challenge gender stereotypes and help all learners see themselves as confident mathematicians! ๐ #ViReal4STEM #STEMeducation #VRlearning #InclusiveSTEM #WomenInScience #Erasmus
โWhat if you could transform your classroom with a curated set of STEM teaching resources? gender inclusive principles you can apply right away? โจ Ready to build a more equitable and diverse STEM future #ViReal4STEMโฏ#STEMeducationโฏ#VRlearningโฏ#InclusiveSTEMโฏ#erasmus,โฏ#erasmusplus,โฏ#womeninscience
๐ One year of ViReal4STEM. A year of teamwork, exploration, and building the foundations for more inclusive STEM education. โจ Thanks for being part of our journey! The best is yet to come! ๐ #ViReal4STEM #STEMeducation #VRlearning #InclusiveSTEM #ErasmusPlus #WomenInScience #EUproject
๐๐ถ๏ธ From Player to Scientist: Why Stories Matter in STEM Education ๐ถ๏ธ๐ STEM careers are often presented as facts, formulas, and finished success stories. But real STEM journeys are human full of curiosity, doubt, failure, and growth. #ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #InclusiveFuture
๐ถ๏ธโจ Why VR Glasses Are a Game-Changer for Education โจ๐ถ๏ธ
In ViReal4STEM, VR glasses are used to transform how students experience learning and how teachers support curiosity, inclusion, and motivation in STEM. #ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #InclusiveFuture
๐๐ฌ What is ViReal4STEM? ๐ฌ๐
A quick snapshot of what the project is all about ๐
ViReal4STEM is an innovative project using virtual reality (VR) to open doors to STEM for young people especially girls and underrepresented groups. #ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #InclusiveFuture
This February, ViReal4STEM is taking another step forward! After meeting with Finnish school teachers at the end of last year, weโre reconnecting with them this month to continue exploring how VR glasses can support learning.
#ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #InclusiveFuture
What if you could step into the shoes of women in STEM to truly understand their journey? Our VR experience uses immersive storytelling to turn awareness into action and build a more inclusive future.
#ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #InclusiveFuture
Our team is enhancing the appโs scenarios to make learning about the #STEM gender gap more realistic and impactful. ๐ก
New immersive experiences are on the way to better support education.
#ViReal4STEM #GenderEquity #VR #STEMEducation
Back to work, back to learningโand back to the conversations that matter. ๐ก
Our VR experience is moving forward to show the world the challenges women face in tech and science. ๐
Letโs make 2026 the year of inclusion. โจ
#ViReal4STEM #WomenInSTEM #VR #GenderGap
Happy Holidays! โจ Thank you for joining us this year on our journey to inspire more young people toward STEM careers. May 2026 bring us more innovation, equality, and learning. #HappyHolidays #STEM
Your STEM future is closer than you think. #Inspiration #STEM
Tip for teachers: including female role models in every STEM unit increases student motivation. #STEMteaching #Inclusion
๐ STEM fact of the week: girls show similar interest in science, but lower self-confidence. The future of STEM needs to break this pattern.
#STEM #STEMgirls
The work continues! Our next steps focus on refining the APP, testing new educational scenarios and creating evidence-based resources to inspire curiosity and motivation in STEM!

Las 10th of November was the global celebration of science as a driver of peace, innovation, and sustainable development๐ฌ ViREAL4STEM project supports these goals by integrating Virtual Reality and inclusive education๐ #vireal4stem, #vr,#erasmus, #erasmusplus, #stem, #euproject
Las 8th Novemeber we celebrated National STEM/STEAM Day. At ViREAL4STEM, we join this celebration by promoting virtual reality experiences that motivate girls and young people to pursue STEM careers. ๐ฉโ๐ฌ๐จโ๐ป๐จ ๐ฌ #vireal4stem, #vr,#erasmus, #erasmusplus, #womeninscience, #stem
๐ต๐ฑ TPM in Poland โ
VR scenario validated, next improvements agreed.
Step by step toward gender-inclusive STEM! ๐
#ViReal4STEM #ErasmusPlus #WomenInSTEM #VR
๐ This week, our colleague Jessica Suarez travelled to Poland for the consortium meeting of @vireal4stem.bsky.social , an Erasmus+ project that aims to make STEM education more inclusive, engaging and accessible.
๐ฉโ๐ฌ ๐ฉโ๐ฌ Women belong in labs, code, and classrooms โ and in the stories we tell about innovation.
Letโs make sure the next generation of girls sees themselves in STEM.
#STEM #EmpowerGirls #ViReal4STEM #STEMIdentity #GirlsInSTEM
Only 28% of STEM professionals are women.
Not because girls arenโt curious โ but because doors still close too early.
Letโs open them. ๐ชโจ
#STEM #EmpowerGirls #ViReal4STEM #STEMIdentity #GirlsInSTEM
Confidence grows early. Encourage curiosity. Celebrate small wins.
Thatโs how we build the next generation of women in STEM. ๐ฑ๐ฉโ๐ฌโฏโฏ
#ViReal4STEM #STEMIdentity #STEM4ALL #GirlsInSTEM #VirtualReality
A single experiment, a single success, a single teacher who believes โ thatโs how it begins.
Letโs keep that spark alive for every girl in STEM with ViReal4STEM ๐ฌ๐ซ

ViReal4 STEM Update! 2nd quarterly meeting is a wrap:
โ
Focus groups with experts are complete.
๐ฎ The pilot VR app is ready for partner testing!
๐ Student validation phase kicks off now.
Onwards to the TPM in Poland!
Through ViReal4STEM, stereotypes donโt decide who you are. You do!
ViReal4STEM helps students explore their scientific identity โ proving that STEM is not about fitting in ... itโs about standing out.
