The main aim of the proposed project is to assist students in better studying and learning physics with the utilization of new educational technologies.
More specifically, a 3D virtual reality educational environment will be developed possessing innovative educational infrastructure, and offering immersive and efficient learning opportunities, engaging students in various educational activities, learning scenarios and offering students an attractive, entertaining and efficient way to learn various topics of the challenging domain of physics. The teachers could utilize the virtual environment to better explain topics of their courses and assist students to better understand them. The students will have the ability to virtually visit laboratories, perform experiments, explore procedures and examine the ways that they are conducted. The virtual educational environment and the laboratories will be designed in a way that supports students to form appropriate mental models of involved concepts, by visualizing them and allowing interactions with the virtual phenomena and processes.
