Intellectual Outputs

Curriculum and innovative learning material for chemistry

The aim is to design and formulate an efficient curriculum for Chemistry courses considering the useability of the Virtual world. In the frame of this output, the consortium will develop learning scenarios and learning material for the designed courses.

Game-based 3D virtual world

A 3D virtual world environment about chemistry that will host all the activities and learning material using an attractive, multi-user training environment. In addition, the 3d virtual world will include a series of 3D interactive scenarios for each course. Finally, the 3D virtual environment will feature training functionality laboratories, classes and auditoriums, which will allow organizing online or distance training/educational process like a face-to-face process.

Training of the teachers and roll-out events

A methodology that will help teachers to educate students in both situations: - in an attractive way during full-time lessons, as well as in a situation where they cannot attend the teaching process in person. It also aims to train teachers on how to plan lectures and teach avatars (students in a virtual learning environment).
