Work Package 3 – Development of the 3D Virtual World

Work Package 3 focuses on the technical development and implementation of the project’s digital platform, which will host the immersive 3D virtual learning environment. The main objective of this work package is to design, build, and deliver a functional and user-friendly platform that supports the educational scnearios developed in the previous stages of the project. Through the collaboration of the technical partners, the platform will be developed using modern digital technologies in order to ensure stability, accessibility, and scalability.

At the beginning of the work package, the technical architecture of the platform will be defined, including the selection of appropriate tools, frameworks, and development environments. Based on the pedagogical requirements identified in earlier work packages, the development team will design the structure of the virtual environment, the interaction mechanisms for users, and the integration of educational content within the system. Particular attention will be given to usability and accessibility to ensure that the platform can be easily used by educators, students, and relevant stakeholders.

The development process will follow a phased approach. Initially, an alpha version of the platform will be created to demonstrate the core functionalities and allow partners to review the basic system architecture. Following internal testing and feedback, a beta version will be developed with extended features, improved performance, and refined user interaction. This stage will include additional testing to identify potential technical issues and ensure that the platform operates reliably.

Finally, a final version of the platform will be produced incorporating the improvements identified during testing. Alongside the technical development, the work package will also deliver supporting materials, including technical documentation, system documentation, user manuals, and demonstration videos that explain how the platform operates.
