Sedu and 3DBear co-created a VR environment for an exam section in creating interior textiles within the vocational studies in Textiles and Fashion. In the VR environment the students can practice designing curtains and learn the process stages from meeting and listening to the needs of the customer to designing and measuring the curtains.
Digitalization improves learning environments and learning itself by removing the restrictions related to time, space, access to information and ability to participate. Teachers at Careeria co-developed educational content for several VR environments. Development work began as early as 2019 with a pilot for the project Simupro: we filmed a pilot plant, essentially related to the processing studies, in 360 degrees, and created escape-room based interactive exercises with Wonda VR software under the guidance of 3DBear. The pilot drew vast national and international attention by being the first of its kind. It was presented at the events of the Finnish National Agency of Education and The Finnish Association for the Development of Vocational Education and Training AMKE and featured at an educational professional event in New York city.
Savo Vocational College runs a development project in effective timber transportation training. As a part of the project, Savo Vocational College’s teachers and 3DBear have co-created a virtual pre-trip inspection for a logging truck. Arto Kärkkäinen, the leader of the development project says: “ -- the goal of the development project is to achieve impressive, homogenous, environmentally-friendly and modern teaching via the digital learning environments”.
