On 20 February, the DR FLEMP Learning Application took centre stage at didacta-show in Cologne, Germany’s largest and most prestigious exhibition for educational products and innovations. The event provided an exceptional platform to showcase the outcomes of the DR FLEMP project and its contribution to tackling workforce shortages in the healthcare sector through innovative technology-driven solutions.
The presentation was delivered by Yuri Nikitin, CEO of INTAMT – International Academy of Management and Technology, who highlighted the transformative potential of the DR FLEMP Learning Application. The project aims to enhance foreign language education for nursing and caretaking professions using immersive Mixed Reality (MR) technologies and AI-driven tools. Nikitin expressed the team’s pride in being part of such an esteemed event and emphasised the importance of the issues addressed by DR FLEMP, including language barriers and professional communication in medical settings.
AI-Driven Communication: A Game-Changer
One of the standout features of the DR FLEMP Learning Application is its AI-driven communication tool. This innovative feature offers a life-like learning experience, simulating realistic and adaptable scenarios to meet the specific needs of healthcare professionals. Users can customise patient characteristics to increase the complexity of exercises or tailor scenarios to address unique training requirements. This adaptability ensures that learners are equipped with the skills and confidence to handle diverse real-world situations.
A Vision for the Future: Introducing XRMEDU
The presentation also marked a pivotal moment as the DR FLEMP project concluded. INTAMT unveiled its ambitious plans for the future: the creation of XRMEDU, a cutting-edge ecosystem of XR-based and AI-supported educational products for the medical field. XRMEDU aims to build on the success of DR FLEMP, expanding its principles and methodologies to develop a comprehensive suite of tools and applications.
This is not the end of our journey,” Nikitin explained. “The conclusion of DR FLEMP is just the beginning of a new era in digital education for medicine. We are committed to further developing XRMEDU over the coming years, bringing advanced solutions to the forefront of medical training and education.”
Impact and Recognition
The presentation drew significant attention from educators, healthcare professionals, and technology experts attending the event. It underscored the relevance of digital innovation in addressing contemporary challenges in education and training, particularly in the healthcare sector. The DR FLEMP Learning Application exemplifies the integration of technology and pedagogy, providing a practical solution to meet the growing demand for highly skilled and linguistically proficient medical professionals.
The team’s participation at didacta not only celebrated the project’s achievements but also opened doors for further collaboration, innovation, and dissemination of the DR FLEMP methodology and tools. With the foundation of XRMEDU, INTAMT looks forward to scaling new heights in digital education and shaping the future of learning in medicine.
