TEACHERS

SCHOOLS will receive up to a two weeklong visit from the Breakout Box, an immersive learning environment that comes right to your parking lot.

STUDENTS will compete and collaborate in an immersive design and build challenge that builds STEM and manufacturing skills and introduces local career opportunities.

TEACHERS (Coming Spring 2025) will receive a fully equipped classroom activity kit with standards-aligned curriculum, lesson plans, training, and all materials and supplies to explore manufacturing topics in the classroom. 

ALL PARTICIPANTS will gain access to our careers portal with information and resources about related events, internships, and more.

The Breakout Box Experience

Learning Undefeated’s onboard game experiences take place inside the Breakout Box and use immersive reality, light, sound, touch screen walls, sensors, and interactive gameplay to build understanding of relevant manufacturing-related concepts. Learning Undefeated currently offers the Manufacturing Challenge as part of this program.

2024 – 2025 School Year (Texas)

Breakout Box: Manufacturing Challenge (Grades 9-12)

In a world where sunglasses are not just a matter of fashion but a necessity for survival, participants will embark on an immersive adventure filled with intrigue, hazards, and reward. The Mission: infiltrate a manufacturing facility that has been monopolized by Evil Eye Corp. to manufacture affordable and sustainable sunglasses for the masses.  

The Breakout Box: Manufacturing Challenge takes high school students on a 35-minute immersive adventure where they apply computational thinking and problem-solving to successfully run an eyewear manufacturing facility. From the moment they step inside the custom-built immersive learning pod, students will experiment with game-based learning to build their critical thinking, collaboration, and manufacturing skills.

Participants will control and manipulate different areas throughout the manufacturing process including scheduling, inventory, machine operations, quality control, maintenance, and distribution.

Students will collaborate to overcome disruptions to each process area to meet their goals. By the end of the experience, students will be able to understand the manufacturing process and the importance of teamwork. Students will walk away with a resource card to discover local manufacturing opportunities including high school pathways, internships, and entry level career options.

MFG Night Events
To engage families and the community, Learning Undefeated will work with schools to facilitate Manufacturing Night (MFG Night) events in conjunction with Breakout Box visits. Learning Undefeated will collaborate with schools to create an after-school community event for students and their families. These open-to-the-public events are intended to showcase local businesses related to the manufacturing industry and expand parents’ awareness of manufacturing careers. The Breakout Box immersive learning pod will serve as the backdrop for the event and Learning Undefeated will engage industry volunteers to talk with students and families.

MFG Classroom Activity Kits (coming Spring 2025)
The Manufacturing Classroom Activity Kits are a set of curriculum modules that introduce students to manufacturing topics and applications in the classroom. Professional development on the implementation of this curriculum and its ties to the TEKs.

This curriculum and its materials will be provided to teachers in conjunction with a Breakout Box visit and the curriculum will be freely available on this site. This curriculum set will be comprised of three, 30- to 60-minute lessons. Teacher resources will also include thought starters to connect manufacturing to the content they teach.
