Projekty, do kterých se zapojujeme

Here is just a summary of the whole project:

Upper secondary school Futurum s.r.o. was garant of this project. Two other international schools were involved, namely the British school Brighton Metropolitan College and the Finnish school Kaurialan Lukio. Teachers involved in the project tried to find a solution for the integration of virtual glasses technology into regular classes. The project was focused on a few subjects – Math, English, Arts, and Biology. In the first part met involved teachers and had VR workshop technology training and then did job shadowing in selected schools. In the second part, teachers picked a curriculum and created their own VR lessons. In the last part, these lessons – VR  classrooms were implemented in schools.

In November 2022, 10 pupils from Futurum visited a Finnish school where they tried VR lessons of advanced mathematics at the local Upper secondary school Kaurialan lukio. In addition to virtual reality, they also tried out augmented reality and the possibilities of its usage. In January 2023, 5 Finnish and 5 Czech students went to Great Britain for a VR Arts classroom at Greater Brighton Metropolitan College. During the week, teachers from individual schools demonstrated blocks of art education with using virtual reality. In April 2023, the last meeting of pupils from the participating schools took place at Futurum. The virtual reality classrooms were focused on Biology. 6 British and 6 Finnish students arrived, and students from Futurum joined the program as well.

The final evaluation of the project took place in June 2023, when the project participants met. As part of this cooperation, was created a useful document – a teacher’s manual, which can be used an help with the implementation of VR technology into regular classes. In this manual, you can find out plans for individual VR lessons created by project participants.

The implementation of VR technologies in education is something new. We are at the beginning of this long journey, which, among other things, should help prepare students for the future life.
