After 2 years of remote conferences and classes a return to in-person events at ISTELive 2022 invited teachers to not only re-engage with each other but also to rethink how they could engage with students returning to the classroom. This presented a unique opportunity to educate the educators on how the LEGO Learning System utilizes learning-through-play principles to teach core STEAM subjects in a hands-on, fun, and engaging manner.

Drawing inspiration from LEGO Education’s successful Mission to Launch program with NASA we created Mission Re-Ignition, an immersive escape room style experience that took teachers on a mission to the moon where they completed a series of thematic timed challenges utilizing LEGO Learning System sets. The experience included an airlock (with lighting and cryo-blast effects), a walk across the surface of the “moon”, three moon-bases packed with LEGO sets and scientific gear, and custom animated intros featuring the LEGO Space Team Minifigures. Over 4 days hundreds of educators took part in the mission and reignited their passion for hands-on in-person learning.
