Virtual Reality Simulator Against Public Speaking Phobias is a Project dedicated to increase to public speaking competences and reduce public speaking phobia among VET trainers and other teaching professors. Epidemiological surveys and statistical manuals of psychopathology (DSM-5, ICD 10) recognize that social phobias has a prevalence of 7% across general population and 13% of had at least one episode. Social phobias affect significantly the work of educators which faces different audiences and public situation in the daily work, reducing significantly their performance at work and satisfaction for life. Morever, to practice a public speaking situation with a real audience is very stressful for educators with social phobias, it involve a serious risk for the psychological condition of the educators or also discourage their involvement in future work in education. Our project has the goal to increase the competences of VET trainers and reduce their public speaking phobia through the Virtual Reality Therapy (VRT), an innovative approach that has been demonstrated to be effective for reducing phobias through gradual exposition to phobic stimuli. The Virtual Reality Therapy (VRT) allow participants to simulate a session of public speaking, giving to users tailor-based suggestions for improving their speech and reduce phobia and anxiety of public speaking.The partnership is composed by 6 organisation from Portugal, Italy, Romania, Spain, Greece and Turkey. The partnership includes 3 associations, 1 University, 2 SMEs. The partnership will produce 3 Intellectual Outputs in 7 languages (EN, IT, PT, RO, GR, SP, TK) open and accessible 24/7 for the following goals- increasing public speaking competences- decreasing public speaking phobiasO1 - Manual - a 300 pages manual translated in 7 languages designed to help VET trainers and all target groups to improve their skills in public speaking and reducing anxiety. The Manual is designed as an action guide, specifically based on practices and exercises for increasing the quality of the speech and favouring the access to teaching and training professions. It includes a model of competences for effective public speaking described with the ECVET terminology and under EQF recommendationO2 - E-learning Platform - a web-based Platform including 10 hours of public speaking lectures, translated into 7 languages about public speaking techniques, phobia reduction techniques, stress and anxiety management, exercises for increasing the attention. The innovative Platform is able to report automatically improvementO3 - VR System - an immersive VR system which simulated scenarios of public speaking at increasing difficulty, allow self-evaluation of psychological states and gives tailor based suggestions on phobia and anxiety managementThe participating organisations will moreover organize:- 5 transnational project meeting, including 5 brief workshop dedicated to experts- 6 multiplier events (120 participants)- at least 12 multiplier events (200 participants expected)During the project's implementation:- at least 30000 people will be informed about projects results- at least 3000 people will access to intellectual outputs- a dissemination plan involving VET centers, school educators, policy makers, decision makers, association representative of professionals included in the target group, press will be involved at broad level in order to promote the adoption of the intellectual output at local, regional, national and international level- a massive plan of online communication will be performed through the joint action of several channels: official website of the project, e-mail services, autoresponders, social media marketingAn impact study will be performed in order to measure the desired outcomes- increased competences and resilience of VET trainers - reduced negative states of educators (phobia, stress and anxiety)- effectiveness of the model in VET centers, Schools and EducatorsThe Impact Study will be used in order to promote the adoption of the intellectual output and possible transferability in all fields of education. The Sustainability Plan ensures that all functionalities and materials will be kept open and accessible to all after the EU funding. Moreover, it includes several strategies to extend the content with: exploitation strategies in other countries, extension of project's content, transferability in different sectors.
