On 5 May 2025, the Lab for Innovative Teaching at Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU) celebrated its third anniversary. Since its opening, the Lab has established itself as a space for future-oriented teaching concepts, experimental ideas and the use of immersive technologies. Teachers, students and members of the partner universities use the lab to familiarise themselves with immersive technologies, apply them and develop new concepts for teaching and studying. In particular, the individual consultations and open dialogue in workshops and other formats make the lab a lively place for exchanging ideas about future-oriented forms of teaching and learning. A particular highlight of recent years is the ‘VR Walk In’ event format. This gives interested parties the opportunity to experience a selected virtual reality application for themselves on each date - such as virtual expeditions to Machu Picchu, scientific explorations with the 3D Science Spaces of the Hessen schafft Wissen initiative or anatomy lessons on a virtual skeleton. The lab team guides participants step-by-step through the virtual worlds and demonstrates practical, didactic methods. A particular highlight in recent years has been the ‘VR Walk In’ event format.
