Over the past school year, Be More Colorful has attended ten Marketplace for Kids events around the state. Marketplace for Kids is a nonprofit organization that hosts multiple education days to ignite the spirit of innovation in school-aged children. Students get the chance to be hands-on exploring careers, technology, science, and more.
The team taught “VR for Career Exploration” at the education days, so of course we brought some of our fun CareerViewXR experiences. We taught about 40 classes and asked students for feedback as well as input into experiences that they’d like to see in the future.
We’ve observed that a good chunk of their interest lies within North Dakota’s in-demand careers (with exceptions like tours of the moon and the White House).
Seeing students get excited about experiencing ND industries on our platform energizes us to keep moving forward and produce more variety for them to explore and enjoy.
