Then this episode of The STEM Space is for you! Claire and Natasha sit down with the visionary co-founders of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.qweebi.com/">Qweebi</a>, a tech company on a mission to revolutionize STEM education. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.qweebi.com/">Qweebi </a>is a virtual makerspace where students design, build, and test everything from rovers to rollercoasters in an online environment that mimics real-world physics. This hands-on, engaging experience eliminates the need for physical supplies while fostering creativity and authentic engineering learning. As the first of a two-part series, this episode explores the inspiration behind Qweebi, its innovative features, and how it aligns with STEM learning goals.</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Want to learn more about Qweebi? <a target="_blank" href="https://www.qweebi.com/projects/roller-coaster?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=vs&utm_campaign=roller+coaster">Try out the Roller Coaster project for FREE!</a></p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Links from the Show:</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>Related The STEM Space Podcast Episodes</strong></p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="/thestemspace/2024/164/stem-overload">164.
