ExQuMe tackles this by moving beyond traditional textbooks.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5,2,1,0,1\">Our project develops five immersive VR modules where students are not just spectators, but participants. Guided by virtual representations of scientific pioneers, learners explore wave-particle duality, superposition, and entanglement in a way that is intuitive, engaging, and scientifically

My doctoral research focused on the reception of Sophocles\u2019 *Antigone* on the modern Greek stage, examining its relationship with national identity and political discourse.\n\nI am also interested in educational innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, gender equality, social inclusion, and European-funded research projects, with a focus on connecting higher education, research, policy, and society.\n\n<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"uclan-text-hover\">\n        <h3>QM CV<\/h3>\n        <p>Andria believes that every discovery begins with a story. As a Lecturer in English and Comparative Literature at UCLan Cyprus, her work explores how narratives shape the way we understand knowledge, identity, and the world around us. In ExQuMe, she demonstrates how storytelling can become a bridge between everyday experience and the abstract world of quantum mechanics, guiding learners through narratives that challenge familiar assumptions and invite them to see reality from entirely new perspectives. <\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"uclan-hover-card\" tabindex=\"0\">\n    <div class=\"uclan-img-wrap\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"uclan-img-default\" src=\"https:\/\/exqume.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/AC_Prof.jpg\" \/>\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"uclan-img-hover\" src=\"https:\/\/exqume.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/AC_kid.jpg\" alt=\"Hover photo for item 2\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"uclan-text-wrap\">\n      <div class=\"uclan-text-default\">\n        <h3>Academic Profile<\/h3>\n        <p>Athanasios Christopoulos holds a PhD in Virtual Reality Engineering and is a Docent in Mixed Reality in Science Education within the Faculty of Science at the University of Turku, Finland.
