Virtual Reality Simulation: An Innovative Teaching Tool for Dietetics Experiential Education
This paper investigates the role of virtual reality and web technologies in the field of dietetics education. Within this frame, special emphasis is given on the building of web-based virtual learning environments so as to successfully fulfill their educational objectives. In particular, basic pedagogical methods are studied, focusing mainly on the efficient preparation, approach and presentati...
متن کاملInnovative Teaching Using Simulation and Virtual Environments
Simulation and game-based techniques are becoming increasingly popular methods of inquiry into complex service-science-related problems and phenomena. Integrating these techniques and models into the curriculum allows for students to visually learn about the objects of their study and the related concepts, interact with processes, components, and systems, and understand the underlying dynamic b...
متن کاملA Virtual Reality Electrocardiography Teaching Tool
We present a novel approach to producing a tool for use in the teaching of electrocardiography. A volumetric model is attained by outputting slice information to image files, which are then used to texture polygons in the reconstruction of the volume. A time-stepping algorithm is used to synchronise the playback of the electrical depolarisation and repolarisation cycles of the heart on both the...
متن کاملSimulation and Virtual Reality in Surgical Education
R apid change is under way on several fronts in medicine and surgery. Advances in computing power have enabled continued growth in virtual reality, visualization, and simulation technologies. The ideal learning opportunities afforded by simulated and virtual environments have prompted their exploration as learning modalities for surgical education and training. Ongoing improvements in this tech...
متن کاملVirtual Reality System as a Tool for Education
Education in the field of computer graphics is attractive, but the necessity of strong theoretical background and the amount of work needed before achieving a non-trivial output could be discouraging for many students. To cope with inherent complexity of computer graphics applications, we designed a system intended to reduce implementation burden and help the students to achieve interesting res...
