Connecting Genetics to Real-World Contexts

Delightex scenes also support real-world application of genetic knowledge. Through AR-supported scenarios, students explore roles such as genetic counsellors or patients and reflect on how genetic information is used in healthcare.

For example:

  • students analyse the impact of a BRCA gene mutation using AR models and discussion prompts,
  • ethical panels raise questions about genetic testing, privacy, and data protection.

These tasks help learners understand how genomic science affects individuals and society, supporting interdisciplinary learning across biology, ethics, and technology (NHGRI, 2024).
