Want to practice a bad news conversation or a conflict situation? And that safely in a virtual environment? That is possible at the University of Applied Sciences Ede (CHE). Since October 1 2023, the CHE has a three-year campus-wide license on Aryzon.World. With this no-coding XR platform students and teachers can developing their own XR experiences very rapidly. For instance, players can easily record an avatar while "being it" and use this for several purposes.

The CHE and Aryzon.World have been working closely together in the plaform's alfa & beta phase for several years. Most recent, a 3D aggression training made by students will be tested on the platform with four courses in the coming six months. Students feel a realistic aggressive work-field situation with Virtual Reality (VR), in this case an out-of-home placement.

Many realistic environments can be simulated with 3D without major costs, which also increases the retention rates of students compared to traditional 2D methods. Students can also build interactive situations in this platform themselves, without programming skills, allowing any students to work with these technologies. Work-field situations, for example unsafe situations, can be tested and experienced more often without risk and without hindrance. The availability of a practice environment for multiple courses, on different devices such as a computer, mobile or different XR glasses, was an additional reason to purchase this campus-wide license.

With the Aryzon.World platform and this public-private partnership, the CHE is one of the first Dutch University of Applied Sciences to use a European XR platform more broadly in education. The company Aryzon.World has also a physical location within the CHE in the XR Lab, to support students ánd teachers with their experiments and research.
