After months of intense collaboration between partners, the DiTwin project is reaching a crucial milestone. The collective efforts invested so far have laid a solid foundation, allowing the project to consolidate the results achieved and take another decisive step towards its final goal. By harnessing the potential of Digital Twin technology, DiTwin is shaping new educational methodologies that bridge the gap between innovation and practical application in the vocational education and training (VET) sector.
The focus over the coming months will shift to implementing the DiTwin modules. This phase is a unique opportunity for participants to apply Digital Twin technology in real-world scenarios and explore its technical and pedagogical potential. The implementation will provide valuable insights into how this innovative approach can enhance experiential learning, making education more immersive, dynamic, and aligned with the evolving needs of Industry 4.0.
In addition, the partnership is working on the implementation of WP3, “DiTwin Backpack”, a dedicated initiative designed to support teachers in acquiring the knowledge, skills, and competences needed to implement, lead, and evaluate practical and experiential learning through Digital Twin-based activities.
These are the main activities foreseen by WP3:
- Handbook – A freely accessible online document with essential information and practical tips on how to use the Digital Twin-based modules effectively.
- Transnational Training Course – Set to take place in Málaga in July, this course is aimed at VET teachers, equipping them with the technical and pedagogical skills required to implement and manage Digital Twin-based activities in line with Industry 4.0 needs.
- Video Tutorial – A comprehensive guide providing an overview of how to integrate all DiTwin outputs into classroom activities.
- Online Demo Event – A virtual presentation of the DiTwin platform, including training sessions on how to use its features effectively.
With these key activities, the DiTwin project is not only advancing in its technological implementation but also fostering a strong community of educators ready to embrace the future of digital learning. As the project moves forward, the partnership remains committed to ensuring that Digital Twin technology becomes an accessible and practical tool for teachers and learners alike, driving innovation in education across Europe.
