Project description

In the summer semester of 2020, as part of the BMBF-funded project ‘AuCity2’ in cooperation with the special fund ‘Digitalisierung in der Lehre’, we intensified our efforts to digitize and process the teaching content of excursions that would otherwise take place on site.

One of these excursions is the tour ‘Neues Bauen am Horn’, in which students of urban water management create a plan for rainwater management on the basis of a site inspection. To virtualize this tour as effectively as possible, we used stereoscopic 360° photographs. With the help of annotations, information is highlighted in the 360° photographs - which can be accessed via a website and can be used like Google Street View. At the same time, students learn content with the help of quiz questions during the virtual walk.

In addition to the desktops application, it is also possible to use it with Google Cardboard and VR glasses (in 3D), as shown in the example video. Initial findings on learning success and applicability have already been obtained in a study conducted in cooperation with FH Erfurt.
