Immersive Learning

3D Virtual Environments

BIG ART integrates 3D virtual environments into vocational education, connecting digital exploration with real-world training spaces and practical learning.

Bringing real spaces into digital learning

An important part of the BIG ART project is the integration of 3D virtual environments to support teaching and training. Using digital platforms, partners create accurate models of laboratories and real workspaces that can be explored virtually by learners.

Technology Platform

Learning Benefits

Explore, prepare and learn safely

Virtual environments give learners new ways to understand professional spaces before and during practical training.

01

Safe Preparation

Students can familiarise themselves with laboratories, equipment and workspaces before interacting with them in real-life training situations.

02

Self-Paced Exploration

Learners can explore training environments at their own pace, revisit spaces and develop greater familiarity before practical activities.

03

Theory Meets Practice

Interactive digital environments help connect classroom knowledge with real spaces, equipment and vocational applications.

Student Projects

More than a virtual visit

3D environments are also practical tools that students can use throughout their own project work.

01

Documentation

Capturing and documenting real spaces and practical project environments.

02

Design

Supporting the planning and development of student assignments and vocational projects.

03

Exploration

Allowing learners to revisit and study real environments through an interactive digital experience.

04

Presentation

Creating more engaging ways to present assignments, learning outcomes and project work.

Modernising Vocational Education

Through this approach, BIG ART strengthens the modernisation of vocational education by combining traditional teaching methods with innovative digital tools, ensuring that learners are better prepared, more engaged and better connected with real-world vocational environments.
