Exqume explaining quantum mechanics

Duration: 2025 - 2028

Programme: Erasmus+ (KA220 - HED)

Coordinator: University of Turku (Finland), https://exqume.eu

ExQuMe explores innovative approaches to teaching quantum mechanics through immersive Virtual Reality (VR) storytelling. By integrating historical scientific narratives with interactive VR environments, the project addresses the abstract and challenging nature of quantum physics in higher education.

The project focuses on enhancing student engagement and conceptual understanding, with particular attention to inclusivity and increasing female participation in STEM. Key outcomes include the development of VR-based learning modules, educational frameworks, and evaluation methodologies, supporting the long-term integration of immersive technologies into higher education curricula.
