The goal of the project is to enhance simulation-based teaching methods in traffic teacher training. This project is being carried out through the collaboration of two training providers and a simulation-focused expert.
Project Duration
September 1, 2025 – August 31, 2027 (24 months)
Project Objectives
- Create a new teaching model that incorporates simulators in the training of traffic teachers.
- Examine and compare the current practices of simulator teaching in Finland and Norway.
- Develop the model collaboratively with experts and teachers through workshops and online meetings.
- Test the model in practice in teacher training sessions in Finland and Norway.
- Collect feedback and improve the model based on it.
- Share the results in seminars and publications to allow others to benefit from the model.
