Education is a System; Teaching is an
Action; Learning is a Process.
Terry Heick

“VR & AR offers new possibilities in the education and
training, allowing greater involvement of students in their
own learning and their learning environment and a constant
evolution of content and tools. Improving students
competences, using interactive teaching methods, tools and
actions.

“The teacher /
tutor-student
relationship is
enhanced by the
facilities that
offers Simulations
technology when
creating virtual
communities and
tools for use in
the classroom in
an effective,
simple and
friendly
community.

“Immersive simulations are one of the most
attractive innovations that provide greater
value for practical training of the community.

It can be used
for visual and
highly
interactive
forms of
learning

Students find connections
between their lives and
their education through
the addition of a contextual
layer

Students can use it to
construct new
understanding based on
interactions with virtual
objects that bring data to
life

“All of these activities are engaging, pulling the
learner in, consuming their attention, allowing
them to interact, and taking responsibility for
their own education,”. This is similar to a
person playing a video game; they are
responsible for what they do in that
environment.

“Thanks to VR
technology students
took a field trip to
ancient Civilizations, a
virtual reality teaching
tool built with VR.
They have the
possibility of visiting
Reconstructed Ancients
Cities, studying added
value information
around those places

The Ministry of Education of Emirates, is implementing an innovative
Learning Resources Centers Program in MOE schools. The aim of the
program is to provide a flexible, technology enhanced space that
supports creativity, innovation and curriculum, improving the teachers
skills and serves as a focal point in communities. The first phase of the
project was implemented in 6 cycle one schools: Dubai, Sharjah,
Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Rask Al Khaimah and Fujairah.
• The LRC are equipped with VR&AR devices, smartphones, tablets and laptops,
robots, 3d printers, as well as games, VR & AR applications, econtents and
educational apps for VR and AR.
• The teachers training program was a key success factor for the project.
• The project was implemented by a strong international experts consortium
(EEUU, UK, Italy and Spain), lead by a Saudi company.
• One Digital Consulting was responsible for the VR &AR Educational project.

Smart Education Labs Methodology.
• Definition of the scope and
objectives
• Definition and integration of
infrastructures, devices and
contents
• Teachers workshops management
• Content management
• Start class activities: Introduction
to devices and methodology
• Class in progress: Introduction to
Units
• Sharing experiences
• Forum and lessons learned

Smart Education Labs Actions.
• Action 1.- The Space:
The Solar system (VR&AR)
• Action 2.- Science:
Human cell (VR&AR)
• Action 3.- Chemistry:
Chemistry Lab (VR)
• Action 4.- The Human Body:
Interactive Human Body(VR&VR)
• Action 5.- The Animals:
Discovering animals in 3D (AR)
• Action 6.- Archeology:
Visiting amazing places (VR)
• Action 7.- Water and Sea Life
A trip around the ocean (VR)
• Action 8.- Habitats and Ecosystems
Visiting different cultures (VR)
• Action 9.- Cultural Heritage
Discovering ancient places (VR)
• Action 10.- Social
Sharing your experiences: 360º

• The solution provided for the project is
a new unique way of learning, unlike all
other existing media and teaching tools.
Virtual Learning apps complement text
and pictures with a 3D experience to
truly engage students. It gives students
context to build mental models and
better understand STEM. They can see
how light enters the human body or
how blood flows the human hearth.
• Using Immersive AR & VR Environments
we can place students in any real world
or virtual situation with an active role in
proceedings through various tasks they
will need to complete. From now on,
teachers can use these unparalleled
learning experiences to build student
mental models and understanding of
STEM ideas with the equipment and
connections already in their classrooms.

Smart Education Labs Recommends.
• New technologies and in particular
“Virtual and Augmented Reality”
reality can help to change the
learning paradigm, but it takes time
and maturity period
• You can create a lot of expectations
or you can provide a profound
disillusion
• Make it simple, easy and quick to
start.
• Don’t forget to resolve all
infrastructures issues and have
everything ready for the show:
(Internet broadband width,
interconnections, devices ready,
headset available, smartphones
updated, apps ready to work,
contents ready for class).
and
• Be ready for the day after !!!

Technology must be simple and fast
adapted in the school.
• Teachers must adapt and love the
tech very fast to eliminate entry
barriers.
• Define clear learning objectives for
the pilot and get feedback every time
you need.
• Interact as much as possible with
teams and students.
• Try to film all your experiences, this
can be the best content. Make your
students the main actors.
• Create interaction and activities with
students.
• Measured the result and the impact in
the learning process
• We will help you to define key
performance indicators and evaluate
results.
• Create your own content

• Assist teachers and supervisors in planning, developing and implementing the training programme for
their classroom.
• Train teachers to identify students need and the steps to assist them in getting help.
• Increase teachers and supervisors comfort level with the content and process of the educational
program.
• Increase teachers and supervisors level of knowledge of the facts of student technology use and
related issues.
• Expand the repertoire of methods, tools and actions for delivering the educational program.
• Increase the competence, confidence and commitment of teachers, supervisors of vocational training.
• Improve teachers, supervisors and parents confidence in using interactive teaching methods, tools
and actions.

But please, don´t forget…it is not
about technology, is about
learning !!!
