Abstract

The recent COVID-19 pandemic situation, where people's mobility has been reduced and compromised, has highlighted the need to acquire new technical skills and develop new educational plans that allow students to continue to enjoy different places and learn without having to move. In order to respond to this scenario, many schools are turning to Virtual Reality (VR) as a technology that allows students to experience a variety of experiences and destinations around the world without having to leave the classroom. Moreover, such technology can also be a way to better educate primary and secondary school students about the changing world we live in an innovative, modern and engaging way. The ART Project aims to connect VR methodology with global citizenship and arts education, thus enabling the online teaching of global citizenship, including art and culture, in an engaging and creative way. Specifically, the main objective is to offer a special training model that can guarantee access to art and culture through VR technology. In this article we present two main objectives derived from the project, which are to provide innovative global citizenship education to explore, discover and stimulate students' interest and to enable the possibility for teachers to contribute to the development of teaching materials and the presentation of this material on the platform.
