Following the successful training meeting in Messolonghi, the initiative continued at the 2nd Vocational High School of Agrinio, expanding the circle of teachers introduced to Virtual Reality (VR) in education.
The activity was implemented within the framework of the Erasmus+ KA220-VET project VRCARE: Modernizing Healthcare Pedagogy with Virtual Reality for Interaction, Ethics, Stimulation and Sensory (Project Code: 2024-1-FI01-KA220-VET-000249151), funded by the European Union.
Eight teachers participated in the session. They explored the pedagogical value of VR headsets, received a presentation of the basic technical functions, and tested the educational applications developed under the project. Special attention was given to virtual scenarios designed for the Health, Welfare and Wellbeing sectors.
The training was delivered by the ICT Coordinator of the Directorate of Secondary Education of Aitoloakarnania, the School Activities Coordinator, and the Education Advisor for the Health sector.
The discussion reflected a growing maturity in the approach to integrating VR into school practice. Teachers openly addressed practical challenges, while also expressing strong interest in the technology’s potential to support simulation, interaction, and professional skills development.
By extending these training sessions to more school units, VRCARE strengthens dissemination efforts and contributes directly to the modernisation of vocational education and training in the health sector.
