But what this event did, was bring these conversations to life, and the application of STEAM in reality. Viper Technology is proud to be associated with BeaconHouse as their technology provider. Viper has been providing back-end technical support to BeaconHouse School Systems for many years, and stays committed to the group’s progressive education philosophy.”  At the BeaconHouse School of Tomorrow Events, the best place to be at is the FULL STEAM room, where children as young as the age of four are equipped with gadgets, showcasing their engineering expertise, their projects, the creativity they can showcase through tablets and notebooks, and what not. From 3D printing to Augmented or Virtual Reality, this room genuinely is the hottest spot to be at, witnessing young brains and their ease with technology.  More than 40 sessions were carried out through the two days, with keynote speeches, panel discussions, debates, interactive workshops, and performances. These were spread across five main streams including A Digital Future, A Balanced Future, A Safer Future, An Expressive Future and An Inclusive Future.The creativity that inspires beautiful works of art is the same creativity that has led to some of the world’s highest-performing, usable and visually appealing inventions. The technology we use today, exemplifies engineering and arts working together. No matter the type of collaboration, students benefit from sharing ideas across disciplines.According to the BSS Group:“BeaconHouse has always placed tremendous emphasis on continuously evolving with the changing needs of the future. The range of issues discussed, and the showcase of technology at the School of Tomorrow (SOT) Events inform our educational philosophy.
