VReiraum ist ein Projekt der Universität Potsdam, welches von der Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre gefördert wird.
Seit August 2022 wurden die Virtual und Augmented Reality-Aktivitäten fünf verschiedener Fachdidaktiken (Geographie-, Chemie-, Geschichts-, Mathematik- und Musikdidaktik) und der Informatik in einem interdisziplinären Makerspace und durch Lehrveranstaltungen miteinander verzahnt. Studierende entwickelten eigene VR-/AR-Lernumgebungen und erprobten diese in der Schule. Ziel des Projekts war es, VR-/ AR-bezogene Kompetenzen bei angehenden Lehrkräften anzubahnen und VR-/ AR-Lernumgebungen für den Einsatz im Unterricht zu entwickeln, in der Schulpraxis zu implementieren und zu evaluieren.
Welche VR-/AR-Lernumgebungen in den Fächern entstanden sind, wie diese im Unterricht eingesetzt werden können, welche Erfahrungen zum Einsatz von VR und AR von den unterschiedlichen Fächern in der Schule gesammelt werden konnten und welche Rolle die Interdisziplinarität bei dem Projekt spielt, werden Sie bei der Veranstaltung und im Austausch mit allen Beteiligten erfahren.
Wir freuen uns auf Sie und Ihre Fragen, einen spannenden Austausch und Einblicke in virtuelle Lernumgebungen der Fächer Geographie, Mathematik, Chemie, Musik, Geschichte und Informatik.

Wann: 26. Oktober 2023, 16:00 bis 19:00 Uhr

OPEN HOUSE @ D-LABS: "Digital Experience For All"
2023-11-16 16:30 - 20:00 | D-LABS GmbH, Marlene-Dietrich-Allee 15, Potsdam, 14482, Germany
Ein barrierefreier Alltag betrifft uns alle: Jede, die sich bei einem Video im Internet Untertitel herbeigesehnt hat, weil die U-Bahn so laut dröhnte und jeder, der bei der Bedienung des Fahrkartenautomaten nicht weiterkam, erlebt Barrieren. Auch im Arbeitsleben gibt es Hindernisse, an die wir nicht sofort denken, die uns aber viel Zeit und Nerven kosten – und so die Funktionalität der (digitalen) Tools einschränken, die wir tagtäglich verwenden.
Wir laden dich herzlich zum nächsten medianet OPEN HOUSE bei D-LABS ein zum Thema “Digital Experience for All”! Hier erfährst du mehr darüber, welche Vorteile nutzerzentriertes Design für unseren Arbeitsalltag hat und wie Prozesse und Lösungen so gestaltet werden, dass sie allen Menschen einen einfachen Umgang und perfekten User Flow ermöglichen. Nicht nur wegen des 2025 in Kraft tretenden Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetzes (BFSG) ist es Zeit, über den Mehrwert von ganzheitlich gedachter Barrierearmut intensiv zu sprechen.
Du darfst beim Event im Vordergrund stehen! Nach einer vom nutzerzentrierten Designalltag inspirierten Keynote durch das D-LABS-Team folgt eine offene Gesprächsrunde, in der Gäste u.a. Herausforderungen in der Umsetzung barrierearmer Prozesse und Lösungen schildern und sich professionellen Input einholen können. Welches sind die Bereiche in deinem Arbeitsleben und in deinem Alltag, wo du Barrieren wahrnimmst? Wie gehst du damit um?
Bringe deine Erfahrungen und Ideen zu diesem komplexen Thema mit und lasse uns gemeinsam durchleuchten, wie wir Digitales effektiver und zugänglicher gestalten können. Wenn du konkrete Herausforderungen vorstellen willst, melde dich bei uns gern vorher.
Unter den vorgestellten Szenarien nimmt sich D-LABS gern einem Projekt auch nach der Veranstaltung mit einer detaillierteren Beratung an. Vielleicht ja zu deinem?

Die Veranstaltung ist vorrangig Mitgliedern des medianet und der eingeladenen Personen der Veranstaltungs-Partner vorbehalten.

Follow exciting case studies with Berlin-based XR artists Maarten Isaäk de Heer and Tim Deussen, board members of XRBB and other guests.
