Google Expeditions

Challenge

Encourage educators to try a virtual reality field trip with their classes.

Solution

The Google Expeditions Pioneer programme used striking visuals and captivating copy to bring the experience of a virtual field trip to life for educators.

The campaign demonstrated what a revolutionary educational tool Google Cardboard is, allowing school children to take virtual field trips to far-flung locations, both on earth and in space!

Ads ran in education industry publications and at a number of well-attended industry events. Educators were also contacted directly by post.
