Multiplier Event By ASPETE – 30 May 2024, 19:00

ASPETE from Athens Greece, hosted an online multiplier event on May 30th 2024, at 7:00 PM, to present the latest advancements in the Erasmus+ TRiPGiFT project. The event highlighted the development of cutting-edge technological tools designed to revolutionize geoscience education.

A key focus was on the demonstration of Augmented Reality (AR) apps created by ASPETE and Virtual Reality (VR) experiences developed by the University of Cyprus (UCY). These immersive technologies bring to life three educational scenarios developed by project partners: EAGME’s Penteli, NKUA’s Samaria, and NOA’s Thunder.

Participants gained valuable insights into the project’s methodology, explored the potential of new technologies in education, and witnessed firsthand how these innovative tools can enhance learning experiences. The event also featured presentations from all partners, showcasing their contributions to the project into the development of the three VFTs.

Through initiatives like this, the TRiPGiFT project continues to push the boundaries of educational technology and inspire the next generation of geoscientists.
