The aim is to raise awareness of the severe impact of climate change on our planet and our economic and social development. After the virtual reality session, students participate in a guided role-play in a multimedia environment where they analyze climate challenges from different points of view. The educational experience ends with a class discussion on mitigation and adaptation policies.<\/p>\n<p>This innovative educational experience uses virtual reality, interactive digital content and immersion as catalysts for learning, illustrating the Liquid Learning methodology applied at IE, as well as promoting critical thinking in students. Thousands of students in IE University\u2019s Bachelor\u2019s, Master\u2019s and Executive Education programs have used \u2018Eye in the Storm\u2019 since its launch at the end of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>IE University was recently recognized as one of the most innovative universities in the world at the QS Reimagine Education Awards 2023 held in Abu Dhabi. This year, more than 1,200 educational proposals designed by universities and specialized companies around the world to improve the student experience have participated in the competition.<\/p>\n<p>As part of its academic commitment, IE University has dedicated more than 15,800 hours of training to sustainability-related content, which accounted for 9% of the total number of sessions taught, 38% more than in 2019-2020. As a reflection of this academic commitment, the\u00a0<em>Financial Times<\/em>\u00a0recognizes IE University as the best institution in the world for ESG and Net Zero content training in its 2023 MBA Ranking.
