We participated the Student Challenge competition for the second time this semester, organized by Virtual Worlds Education Consortium, with three groups (Blue, Green, Red). Additionally, Ovcel and Merino, who took our course in previous semesters, also participated in the competition individually. This semester, unlike previous semesters, our undergraduate students and PhD students also worked together. All our students who participated in the competition won awards.
