Virtual Radiopharmacy VirRAD

The VirRAD project is concerned with section III.2 of the IST 2001 work programme - Education and Training. Actions in this section are intended to support improvements in the process of learning through the use of ICT, focusing in particular on the trend towards greater individual control and responsibility for training.

VirRAD aims to create a readily accessible virtual-environment where the Radiopharmacist community can meet to learn, exchange views, and discuss best practice.

VirRAD will investigate the integration of a personalised, yet social, learning environment; with technologies that explore protocols for communications between virtual reality and the facilitation of communities of learners; and learner modelling and instructional design. It will also satisfy the real needs of the specialised radiopharmacy community identified through a formal study of their user requirements. This will be translated into the functional specification for the environment. The site contains information about the project progress and will eventually link to the resulting virtual-environment.
