An Insight into the world of VR and AR

CoSpaces Edu is a software designed to create 3D Virtual Reality (VR) or Augmented Reality (AR) spaces. With CoSpaces, students will be able to learn how to create their 3D models and animate them to perform various functions. Through this course, students will get to use the in-built block editor and physics engine to create their virtual reality scenes and environments.


No Basic Understanding of coding is required for this course

Programming Language(s) Involved: -

Recommended Age: 7-8 yr

Duration: 12 hours



Course objective:

  • Understand CoSpaces and how to use the software to design 3D VR

  • Introduce the fundamentals of block-based programming, CoBlocks, to compile instructions for use in the animation of 3D models


Course outcome:

  • Place desired objects in 3D environments and manipulate its shape, colour and positioning

  • Perform block-based programming and compiling instructions to program sprites and existing 3D models

  • Students should be able to create an interactive digital game
