Virtual Public Transport for your Educational Institution!
Virtual Public Transport : Learning to travel with confidence
Virtual OV is an innovative virtual reality platform that allows students to learn to travel on public transport in a safe and realistic way. Originally developed for neurodivergent individuals, such as young people with autism or mild intellectual disabilities, it's valuable for anyone who wants to become more independent—from vocational students to seniors.
Students practice essential travel skills, such as planning, transferring, and handling unexpected situations. At the same time, they develop executive functions and build self-confidence. This makes the step to independent travel easier and more achievable.
Strengthening Citizenship with Virtual Reality
Virtual Public Transport offers more than just public transport training. With realistic simulations and practical scenarios, you'll encourage:
- Executive functions: Working systematically, making decisions and solving problems.
- Social skills: Dealing with unexpected situations, communicating with fellow travelers.
- Independence and self-direction: The confidence to travel independently and participate in society.
Virtual public transport aligns perfectly with the
SLO core objectives for citizenship and prepares students for an active role in society.
