Bauhaus-Universität Weimar: Dissemination Activities

Dissemination Activities

The dissemination activities of the project brought advantages to a diverse range of individuals, encompassing young people, experts, policy makers, and relevant stakeholders. These benefits materialized through two main channels. Firstly, the project results were shared through publications at multiple conferences and presentations, offering attendees valuable insights into the project's outcomes. Consequently, they could apply this knowledge within their own higher education institutions. Furthermore, visitors at project exhibitions had the unique opportunity to directly engage with the virtual tours specifically developed for the project.

Presentation of project achievements in the form of a booth at the Summaery2022 (Science Mile Q3) of the Bauhaus-University Weimar.
Participation in the Jahrestagung eTEACH Netzwerk Thüringen with a booth showcasing the developed 360-degree tours and a presentation within the special session "Panel Technologien in der Lehre".

At Summaery2022, attendees had the chance to try out VR tours of the wind turbine at Ruhr-University Bochum and a Fire resistance test from Aveiro University.
At the Jahrestagung eTEACH Netzwerk Thüringen, the presentation by L. Abrahamczyk focused on supporting the comprehensive understanding of complex phenomena and gathering experiences from other disciplines.
Presentation of the 360° videos to approximately 20 students outside the pilot course at the Bauhaus-Summer School course "Forecast Engineering" to collect more user feedback.
