Flock XR is a visual creativity & coding tool that allows young people to create 3D experiences in a web browser.

Catherine Elliott, of the Flock XR project wanted to find out how it can be used to engage learners with social emotional and mental health needs. She engaged a group of 12-14 year olds who were not only asked to build a 3D project but also to act as beta testers, a task they quite enjoyed.
