EM2C is not your average hackathon - it is the next generation of collaborative problem-solving events. We believe that only through interdisciplinary collaboration can the future of emerging media truly shine. Students from ALL fields of study are welcome to participate!
How it works: Over the course of 48 hours, participants will implement emerging media to create tools that enhance teaching & learning. You will be presented with challenges proposed by professors & educators from Faculty of Land & Food Systems, Department of Creative Writing, School of Journalism, Department of Theatre & Film and more!
Mentors and Judges will be present throughout the event to guide teams towards pedagogical solutions and answer subject-specific questions. Students will have access to multiple Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality headsets, free Google Cardboards to take home and food throughout the event.
