Lumination

The Lumination League champion has been named! 🌟🏆

This year, 18 teams from across Australia competed in the Lumination League, an immersive competition designed to enhance engagement, collaboration, and digital literacy.

Over six weeks, participants developed skills in creativity, teamwork, problem-solving, and precision across subjects like English, mathematics, the arts, humanities, science, and physical education. Using XR technology, teams brought their ideas to life—whether designing 3D models, composing music, or testing science experiments—demonstrating the power of innovation in learning.

After six weeks of creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving, SJC Red, from St Joseph's College Geelong, rose to the top and claimed victory! 👑

Lumination League 2024: The Competition is On!

The Lumination League is in full swing, with schools from across Australia competing in an exciting 6-week inter-school tournament that challenges students’ creativity and problem-solving skills!

Here’s a recap of the first two challenges:

🎨 Challenge #1: Teams brought scenes from their favourite books, poems, or short stories to life in 3D using Tilt Brush. St Joseph's College Geelong took home the top prize for their outstanding representation of The Treehouse Series, showing incredible creativity and storytelling.

🎶 Challenge #2: Students had the option to either craft a sculpture representing their school’s spirit and values or create a 30-second to 1-minute theme song. The Science Team from Australian Christian College - Marsden Park wowed judges with their stunning virtual sculpture, The Blue Jay.

Now, the competition continues with Challenge #3—the Mathematics Round, where teams will create something amazing using their Lumination Learning Labs. Stay tuned as we get closer to crowning the champions!
