Description
The GAD Game project is promoted by the European Commission through the small-scale association's Erasmus+ Program (2021-1-IT01-KA210-VET-000034522) and has a double objective (i) to develop a free and versatile AR application for the teaching of technical studies; and (ii) accompany the teaching-learning process with a methodological approach of the trainers based on the principles of gamification, to achieve a successful application in the classroom. GAD Game thus addresses the development of educators' digcomps and the ability to create digital learning environments and educational products suitable to meet new training challenges. In this communication, the objectives, methodology and preliminary results of the project are presented. In particular, the development of a free APP for Android and iOS systems and the creation of case interactive lessons based on three-dimension (3D) models in the areas of Engineering, Biology and Health are shown.
