[vc_row type=”container” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]Virtual Reality environments<\/strong> are becoming increasingly common in the classroom, offering the opportunity to revolutionise pedagogical dynamics<\/strong> by stimulating optimised learning through interactive and immersive content. A virtual simulation allows real-life situations to be recreated and students’ skills to be accurately assessed<\/strong>, while they have the opportunity to put their theoretical knowledge into practice.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The European University of Madrid<\/a> (UEM)<\/strong> has committed to Virtual Reality<\/a> to optimise the higher education of its students and, to this end, Innovae has developed a series of didactic resources<\/strong> aimed at different areas of study.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Thanks to the virtual capsules developed, UEM students have the opportunity to develop transversal and specific competences<\/strong>, such as critical reasoning or decision-making, in completely safe and immersive environments.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”container” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=””][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Training capsules for the UEM” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:36px|text_align:left|color:%23d50057″ google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_custom_heading text=”Medical Area” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:22px|text_align:left|color:%2320132c” google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”83251″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]We have developed a total of three immersive capsules aimed at training medical and health university students that promote good practice in patient safety<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The experiences offer a tiered training program, adapting to the level of complexity depending on the course, and the situations recreated are varied, going through medical challenges in relation to children, adults and elders.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”83259″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Thanks to these training capsules, students put their decision-making and problem-solving skills into practice<\/strong>. The gamification integrated in the capsules stimulates the concentration and motivation<\/strong> of the students and makes it easier to accurately assess the students’ skills, including a final test that is digitally documented.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”container” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=””][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Criminology Area” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:22px|text_align:left|color:%2320132c” google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”83263″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]This virtual experience is aimed at the field of criminology and law, and covers a criminal investigation<\/strong>. UEM students can apply their knowledge in a virtual crime scene, designed with interactive elements that students must analyse<\/strong> to solve the case.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Through this project, criminology training takes on a practical character, allowing students to be put to the test in a realistic environment. This has a greater impact on the students, and brings them closer to the reality of the work that awaits them.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”container” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=””][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Dentistry Area” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:22px|text_align:left|color:%2320132c” google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”83255″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]This immersive module allows students at the UEM to experiment with the Simodont haptic simulator<\/strong>, a device that allows them to practice dental interventions in a very efficient way.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the project, students can come into contact with the reality of the medical environment from a distance<\/strong>, exploring the professional environment and difficult-to-access devices autonomously.<\/p>\n

They can also work with devices that would otherwise be completely inaccessible due to their high cost if they were not recreated using 3D models.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”More on virtual training capsules” style=”gradient-custom” gradient_custom_color_1=”#c4016c” gradient_custom_color_2=”#750377″ shape=”round” size=”lg” align=”center” css_animation=”bounceIn” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.innovae.com%2Fen%2Fsavi-virtual-training-solution%2F|target:_blank|”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”container” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=””][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Benefits of Virtual Reality in education” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:36px|text_align:left|color:%23d50057″ google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_single_image image=”83271″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][mvc_infobox info_opt=”show_icon” icon_height=”50″ icon_radius=”50%” border_width=”2″ line_height=”0″ title_color=”#000000″ font_icon=”fas fa-chalkboard-teacher” icon_color=”#d1005c” hoverclr=”#ffffff” hoverbg=”#d1005c” border_clr=”#d1005c” title_size=”0″]<\/p>\n

Knowledge retention<\/strong><\/p>\n

Virtual Reality<\/strong> offers experiences that combine didactic elements with gamification methods<\/strong>, creating impactful experiences. The immersive element also helps to stimulate users’ concentration<\/strong>, so that knowledge retention is optimised.<\/p>\n

Learning by doing, from safety<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Virtual capsules have the advantage of being able to recreate realistic environments<\/strong> and situations of any kind, even those that in real life are restricted to experts. The safety<\/strong> provided by Virtual Reality offers users the opportunity to come into contact with reality without compromising their well-being<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Increased motivation and satisfaction<\/strong><\/p>\n

The learning dynamic<\/strong> takes on a positive connotation through virtual experiences, as learners take a proactive role<\/strong> in the learning experience. Immersion stimulates the degree of involvement<\/strong>, leading to a more efficient and satisfying<\/strong> learning.<\/p>\n

Optimised assessment<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The system of milestones, achievements and goals<\/strong> proposed by our virtual capsules makes it possible to digitise each user’s journey, allowing teachers to monitor the students’ progress and evaluate them objectively.<\/strong><\/p>\n
