Introduction

This paper demonstrates the pedagogical model used

to support innovation education (IE). This was

central to a three-year European project entitled

Innovation Education (InnoED) based on distance

learning in design and technology education

(Thorsteinsson & Denton, 2003). This work focussed

on the educational use of information and

communication technology (ICT) coupled with the

development of a pedagogical model for distance

learning in Innovation Education (IE) in primary and

secondary schools across Europe. The model is based

on the use of a virtual learning environment, with

supportive internet and database technologies, to

facilitate virtual classrooms and laboratories in

support of technology education. In addition, this

work emphasised the development of the IE

pedagogical model and the pragmatic use of

information in technology education and in IE. The

pedagogical model and a number of teaching,

studying and learning processes were devised and

implemented within the virtual learning environment

Current research deliberates strategies for such

assessment and evaluation. This is action-based

research and as such courses and lessons have been

primarily designed for in-service training of InnoEd

technology teachers as well as initial teacher training

providers. The project was based on the authors

experiences of the provision of learning resources for

support of distance and blended learning (Page,

2005), (Thorsteinsson & Denton, 2003) and

(Lehtonen et al, 2005). An international learning

community was established which aimed to cultivate

innovation among students as well as encouraging IE

in the differing education curricula across the

community (Uljens 1997; Tella et al. 2001). The

work provided an interactive distance learning

environment, where students interact with the tools,

materials and necessary for their creative thoughts to

become ideas and ultimately become products.

The project was planned in three stages, the first stage

was the culture specific dimension and preparatory

stage where the work was aimed at seeking suitable

solutions to fit the existing educational surroundings

in each participating country (Kananoja et al 2000)

and (Page & Thorsteinsson 2003). The work reported

here has been based on first hand experience and

knowledge by the participants in each country,

sharing such experiences, and structuring a flexible

open and distance learning environment for teachers,

students and teacher training providers in the field of

Innovation Education. The second stage was the

dissemination of innovation education within each

country, training teacher trainers, in-service teachers

and setting up learning environments based on the

previous stage (003). The third stage of this

project is a European-wide dissemination of the

innovation education pedagogical model based on the

experience of the first two stages. The project is

intended for technology education curricula across

European collaborating countries involving initial

teacher-training providers, in-service teaching

provision for dissemination in the classroom. The

deliverable of this project is a teaching, studying and

learning environment integrated with a database,

equipped with relevant tools for idea generation and

development of the Innovation Education pedagogical

model (Alamäki 1999; Dugger & Naik 2001).

What is Innovation Education (IE)?

Innovation education in school activities arose from

the original Design and Craft subject in Iceland. It is

based on a creative emphasis in teaching, studying

and learning (Gunnarsdottir 2001). The model is

broadly similar to problem-based learning (PBL)

(e.g. Boud & Feletti 1999) and the design model

(Kimbell 1987) as well as the neoVygotskian and

neoGalperinian models (cp. Vygotsky 1978a, b;

Podolskij 1997). The basis is conceptual work in the

broadest sense, which involves the search for

solutions to needs and problems in our environment.

It can also be used to enhance or redesign current

products or services. IE is intended to be directed by

an innovation process rather than subject content and

as such IE is cross-curricular. In this work, IE is

discussed as a fundamental approach to technology

education where students call upon on their

knowledge and understanding from all sources to find

solutions (Aðalnámskrá grunnskóla 1999). In many

respects IE is a specific approach to problem-based

learning (PBL) (cp. Boud & Feletti 1999; Albanese &

Mitchell 1993). In addition, innovation exercises can

provide a context for the research into further

understanding. The primary aims are:

1. To stimulate and develop the creative

abilities of students;

2. To teach, study and learn in certain problem-

and innovation-based learning processes;

from identifying a context, where students

develop their own concepts and realization

with appropriate models;

3. To teach, study and learn to use creative

ability in daily life;

4. To encourage and develop the student’s

initiative and strengthen their self belief;

5. To make students aware of the ethical values

of “objects” while teaching them ways to

improve their environment (Thorsteinsson

1996).

The Ideology behind Innovation and its

Ethical Values

Innovation work is based on the notion that everyone

has creative ability that can be developed further

some degree through educational stimuli and self-

developmental activities. Through such creative

ability the student uses his/her creativity to form the

world (Thorsteinsson 2000). Creativity and problem-

solving are intrinsic to technology education or

design and technology education (D&T). Technology

education and D&T are linked – the creative process

and problem-solving strategies based on it are

important because they enhance the quality of

solutions to real-life problems (cp. also Kimbell

2000a; Kimbell 2000b). Creative thinking results in

original solutions to problems that continually arise in

personal spheres (Runco & Albert 1999). Everyone

can call upon their creative ability if they have the

opportunity to develop and mature through education

in a conscious and directed manner. The ideology

behind innovation work concerns one’s ability to use

their creative powers and intelligence to modify their

environment (Kuo & Levis 2002). Innovation

projects are intended to augment such strengths or

qualities in a student’s makeup and thus strengthen

society in the future (Thorsteinsson 1998; cp.

Lehtonen 2002a; b).

Innovation Education in a Virtual Learning

Environment

The InnoEd project is based on lengthy experience of

Innovation Education in the Icelandic school system.

The former model has been developed from 1992 in

Iceland and is used as a background for a new

pedagogical model. The old model uses general

classroom when the new model uses virtual reality,

the web and specific data based software designed by

the participants in the project (see Figure 1.).

The new model is a continuation of the old model and

has been developed on the same creative processes.

However, it is formed for a virtual school

environment instead of just using general classroom

or technology education laboratories. Moreover, it

integrates the InnoEd data-driven software, ICT, VR

in an ODL scenario. Students have the freedom to

bring their realities from external sources such as

home and environment into the school and work with

them there in the classroom. The virtual reality

environment is essentially a shared virtual space and

a mental tool (Lehtonen 2003b; cp. Vygotsky 1978a ;

Jonassen 2000; Lehtonen 2003a; Lehtonen to appear)

for sharing ideas and thoughts on symbolic level and

a tool for communication, distributed knowledge and

shared expertise (Oatley 1990). In addition, it

engenders feelings or emotions as well as bringing

the participants together and motivating them in the

ideation process. Such opportunities for using VR as

tool for symbolic manipulation of problem-solving

activities and as a tool for communication has

established a new and open way for ideation using

VR.

The way in which the InnoEd VR application will be

used has been discussed and carefully researched

because the IE process was not fully developed as a

pedagogical model. This model has evolved and as

such the tools follow the pedagogy rather than merely

fitting such model around the development of ICT

and VR technologies. In other words, the way in

which the technology is being learned and used by the

student through knowledge construction

understanding and application has much more

relevance than the mere technical novelty of using

such tools.

The process model Network-oriented studying with

simulations (e.g. Lehtonen 2003a; b) was developed

in MOMENTS (Models and Methods for Future

Knowledge Construction: Interdisciplinary

Implementations with Mobile Technologis)

consortium project. The MOMENTS is funded by

Academy of Finland and the National Technology

Agency of Finland and Finnish companies.

MOMENTS case study number 6 Network-based

Mental Tools in Technology Education has been

giving background for the IE process development

and becoming one part of the innovation process and

process assessment model (see Figure 1.).

Figure 1. The preliminary VR innovation process

and assessment model (Based on Lehtonen et al.

unpublished manuscript in process)

Figure 1. describes the activity in the innovation

education pedagogical model. The teaching has been

designed to direct students’ studying and learning

activities as an individual and as a member of a

virtual group. This occurs through small groups

towards Vygotsky’s zone of proximal development

(ZPD) (Vygotsky 1978a) using instructional design

solutions and mediating VR environment information

technology (Lehtonen 2003). The aim of this work

has been to create a process in which ideas and topics

being developed and studied and their related sub

skills, knowledge and understanding are constructed

in the group process inside VR environment. In the

initial stage of the process, students engage in

network-guided activities in which they externalize,

communicate and visualize their ideas to others.

Such representations are through speech,

diagrammatic figures, video-clips, drawing etc. as test

the viability of their ideas using VR environment

together with physical materials.

Why use VR in Innovation Education?

The future and the future teaching, studying and

learning methods have not been suddenly invented.

Instead of inventing them those ways can be

developed. It is a more of an evolution like approach

and revolution-like approach in developing future

solutions. The InnoEd project and the MOMENTS

project are future oriented projects creating ways of

teaching, studying and learning. The new tools like

VR are the future tools of learners. The reasons for

using the VR in the InnoEd project are:

1. To enable easy communication inside

3-D spaces where students and teachers

from different countries can meet

synchronously in real-time, freely

sharing information and working

together with their ideas;

2. To make students able to meet each

other and their teacher as avatars in

network-based education (NBE) (see

Lehtonen, Ruokamo & Tella 2004) and

in distance education. This enables

teachers able to guide students in their

ideation processes;

3. To share expertise (Oatley, 1990) in

working together around students’

ideas as sharing problems in order

solve and develop solutions to such

problems;

4. To give opportunities for developing

certain design skills as drawing and

building prototypes from primitive

shapes such as cubes, spheres and

cylinders;

5. To give a teacher an opportunity for

delivering presentations for his/her

students;

6. To set up exhibitions of the students

work as presentations from individual

students and schools in the form of

video or slideshows on video-projector

screens;

7. To set up exhibitions of interactive

3D concept ideas by students;

8. To make virtual meetings between

the participants in the project possible.

The InnoEd VR Technology

As mentioned earlier above the main aim for the

InnoEd project is to find out how new technology can

be used to encourage creativity, practical use and

construction of knowledge, team skills,

communication and collaboration in school education

(cp. Lehtonen 2002a). To fulfill this aim the

participants have developed specific data-driven

software. The software uses SQL2000 and ASP

database technologies. [http://www.innoed.is]. Skyrr

hf. in Iceland hosts the database. Solutions, which are

based on open systems and standardized technology,

are used as much as possible to make it

uncomplicated for the users to transfer material from

other systems. Furthermore, such software

components function fast and are easy to control.

The data-driven software’s main role is to support

ideation through open communications. The former

model has been developed from 1992 in Iceland and

is used as a background for new pedagogical model

(Thorsteinsson 1994). This model uses general

classroom and technology education labs where the

new model uses virtual reality, the Internet and

specific database software designed by the

participants in the project. The InnoEd project uses

version of a virtual reality technology developed by

the Icelandic Smartvr hf. company. This Virtual

Reality environment is desktop computer-based and

uses specific local and server software applications,

which the company has developed for many years.

This project is in progress and the VR system has

been upgraded several times reflecting the

participants use and experience from the InnoEd

project.

The Smartvr technology is built on SmartVerse®

software, which is a platform for developing and

creating dynamic, multi-user, persistent simulated 3D

environments. It has a modular framework

containing a large set of reusable software

components that are easily assembled to create rich,

truly interactive virtual worlds, suitable for a broad

range of applications. Users are able to freely interact

with one another, view multimedia elements and

manipulate objects in the world in real-time. The

inclusion of playfulness (Hyvönen & Ruokamo 2004)

and edutainment (education and entertainment) and

their combined influence on teaching, studying and

learning is one of the background ideas (see e.g.

Lehtonen 2003a; Lehtonen & Vahtivuori 2003;

Vahtivuori & Lehtonen 2003; Prensky 2001;

Crawford 2003). SmartVerse® also has a suite of

communication tools to facilitate multi-modal natural

user-interaction (see Figures 3. and 4.). The

modularity and flexibility of the framework and the

deep level of dynamic interactivity (cp. Crawford

2003) possible in SmartVerse® worlds made it an

appropriate platform for the development of the

InnoEd project.

Figure 2. Inside the InnoEd

Figure 3. Inside the InnoEd

The activities inside VR, involve realistic virtual

reality worlds, which are edited directly in real-time,

using the powerful SmartVR® world editor. Visual,

drag-and-drop metaphors for editing, such changes

can be seen and tested immediately. When built-in

object types do not suffice for an application, new

ones can be rapidly developed and added to the

system. The system offers sufficient bandwidth

communication, which supports many-to-many voice

conferencing via the Internet (voice-over IP).

The VR Communication Plays Big Role in the

New Model

The virtual team project (see Figure 2.) is dependent

on different types of technologies, which provide

mediated communication in different ways. The so-

called cross communication within the team is the

most critical key for success of the project, because

communication plays a significant as well as crucial

role in the process. The main user-communication

components of the Virtual Reality used are:

1. The text chat system through Internet Relay

Client (IRC), which implements traditional text

chatting, where users type in sentences via the

keyboard. The Text Chat system is

implemented as a set of node types and User

Interface Plug-ins that display them. It

supports both range-based chat, where you see

the text being typed by avatars near you, and

group-based chat.

2. The voice chat together with text chat allows

multi-modal communications; it is a many-to-

many voice-over-IP conferencing system,

allowing users with headphones and

microphones attached to their computers to

speak with one other. This approach to

conferencing uses advanced compression to

enable voice communications over low

bandwidth (several voice streams over a 28K

modem). The conferencing system will soon

support avatar lip-synch and gesturing, making

avatars move their mouth in synch with the

user’s speech while performing natural-looking

hand and body-language gestures.

3. The shared interactive whiteboard

component implements a whiteboard that users

can express their designs within. Like the text

chat system it is implemented as a set of node

types and user interface plug-ins that display

them. These two subsystems are interesting

examples of Q-State-enabled multi-user

functionality that is not related to 3D space at

all. The whiteboard is populated with 2D

graphical objects and the text chat doesn’t

involve spatial dimensions as the abstract

design of Q-state makes this possible.

The SmartVR® technology is an effective and

somewhat pleasurable approach to user

communications. The idea of edutainment,

playfulness and game-based interaction model is

fitting very well to its target user group; young people

across the Europe. The goal is to use the 3D space,

avatar gestures, eye contact and camera control to

help small groups of users communicate in an easy

and natural way with voice. These features are

intended to make up for the inherent Internet network

latency and the lack of verbal gestures that are a

necessary part of eye-to-eye conversations.

SmartVR® believes that 3D spaces, graphics and

avatars can recreate the sense of community and

being there missing from many current voice-over-IP

and teleconferencing solutions. They have become

essential tools for natural and effective user

communication and multimedia. These are very

appropriate media for bringing people together in

shared worlds so that they communicate with one

another. SmartVerse® features several technological

components to make communications inside 3D

spaces easy and fun. The voice chat enables users to

communicate with each other with speech, using the

SmartVerse® world and the Internet like a phone

conferencing system. The voice data is compressed

with software specifically designed for voice

compression, so SmartVerse® voice conferencing

works over low bandwidth connections such as 56K

modems. The voice of each user is attached to his/her

avatar in the 3D space and is 3D spatialised so it

sounds as if the voice comes from the direction of the

avatar. You only hear the voices of those standing

near to you, just as in real life. Breaking up and

forming conference groups is as simple as walking

towards people's avatars.

A fully featured text-chat system enables users to

communicate by typing short text messages, which

appear on the other user's screen in real-time. The

SmartVerse® text-chat system is similar to well

known text chat systems such as IRC or the text chat

feature of instant messenger products. The shared

whiteboard component allows users to draw on a

shared 2D space. Users can draw boxes, circles, free-

style lines and text. The whiteboard is comparable in

features to the popular NetMeeting shared

whiteboard.

The avatars are the main communication tools. They

can show expressive facial expression and gesture.

Users can command their avatar on expanding the

range of emotions, which the avatar can express,

letting them behave in human, realistic way, keeping

eye-contact, gesture, showing facial expressions,

giving back channel feedback and so fort. The goal is

to make interaction in 3D spaces come as close to

real-life interaction as possible. Simple interface:

voice sound streams are 3D spatialised and appear to

come from the speaker's avatar.

The InnoEd VR world works together with a

database-driven Internet environment, which is

desktop-based and can be restructured according to

technological advancement and system-inherent

properties. Therefore making it particularly useful

for enabling and supporting the pedagogical model

proposed in Innovation Education. The student’s

autonomy is fundamental within the Innovation

Education model as the student brings his/her ideas in

to the school environment and works with them there.

Similarly this can promote a wider socio-economic

view of inventive thinking and wealth creation

(Thorsteinsson 1998). This makes the Innovation

Education different from most other school activities

and brings us its ideological issues. Being in Virtual

Reality might give the student more freedom to think

and act independently and communicate in a school

environment without borders (Figures 5. and 6.)

(Ruokamo 2003). However, the question arises: Can

we work with contextual and situational real world

problems within virtual reality (see Figure 2.)? To

make this able the InnoEd VR runs on the Internet

and the student has access to the Internet through

browsers and the communication is conducted in real

time. Whereas telepresence is defined as the extent to

which one feels presence as the extent to which one

feels present in the mediated environment, rather than

the immediate physical environment. (Steuer 1992.)

Figures 4 and 5. The InnoEd –virtual reality and

communication tools in use at school level

Communications are seen as the key component with

in the VR environment as it creates a sense of

presence. The notion of presence is considered to be

an important conceptual component of any virtual

environment whether it is immersive or desktop. So

what is the presence? Presence is where we are

immersed in a very high bandwidth stream of sensory

input, organized by our perceiving systems, and out

of this bath of sensation emerges our sense of being

in and of the world (Whitelock 2000). Users need to

communicate and interact with other people, search

for information and share their work (see Figure 2.

and Figures 5. and 6.). All the components in the VR

contribute towards making communication easier for

the user – navigation, avatar representation, choice of

text or speech, use of sound and motion, and the

general look of the world.

Figure 6. Participation in the InnoEd VR system

The VR communication system plays a significant

role in the IE pedagogical model as students share

problems, needs and solutions before they select their

individual solutions that they work further with on

their own (cp. Boud & Feletti 1999). In the

beginning, students log on to the Internet and search

for the needs inside of the VR system and share it to

the other students through the database software.

Once logged onto the VR system they draw together

on a whiteboard inside of the VR and put their

solutions in to the database as well.

The IE Process with Use of the VR

The innovation process is simple, but a powerful tool

to teach the student important creative and relevant

skills (see Figure 4. and 5.). After they have learned

the process they can work increasingly independently

and start using the innovation methodology as an

intellectual tool (cp. Vygotsky 1978a; Podolskij

1997) to solve general problems that occur in real

life. The innovation model has not been aimed at

specific age but has been very much practiced in the

age range of 9–16 years, but the methodology can be

used in all levels.

The VR system plays a major role in the innovation

education pedagogical model. The model has been in

development for two years since 2001 and will be

tested with pupils and student teachers as well as

school teachers during this school session 2004–2005.

In the beginning, students will have lessons to

introduce and learn the fundamental skills of using

the virtual environment as a tool for different

subtasks in innovation process and as a part of the

innovation education (IE) process in general (see

process in Figure 1.). Avatars are tested and students

engage with the VR environment in shared

knowledge construction. Tools such as whiteboards

are tested and interactive prototypes from the students

are explored (see process in Figure 1.). The students

observe presentations on browsers with older

inventions, designs and presentations made by other

students. Communications tools are tested as small

text messaging and speaking together.

Students register in the data-driven software and go

from there into the VR. The first orientation lesson is

to find needs and problems on the Internet and host

them in the workshop. Search engines are used and

students work two together. Students share their

needs and expertise with others in technology-

mediated group collaboration process, which leads

them as a group-to-group Zone of Proximal

Development (ZPD) (see Figure 2.; Vygotsky 1978a,

b).

Brainstorming sessions are conducted within the VR

where students communicate together about needs

found and devise solution to such needs. The theory

of internalization (Podolskij 1997) containing

processes of internalization and externalization (see

Figure 1.), theoretical models of technology

education (e.g. Kimbell 2000a, b), PBL-models (e.g.

Boud & Feletti 1999) as well as ideas of reciprocal

teaching (Palincsar & Brown 1984) provide the

theoretical framework to the model. Whiteboards are

used to draw the solutions, which are subsequently

hosted within the database after the individual

students have saved their drawings to the hard drive -

such solutions are shared with the group.

Visualization tools, tools for visual externalization

(see process Figure 1.), obtain an important role

during the discussion process (Zhang 1997; Kriz

1995). Students promote their concept inside of their

workshop and make a verbal description of it.

Models and posters are made in the general

classroom, in technology education laboratories (or

D&T classrooms) and digital still pictures and video

clips are recorded and shared through VR. Students

set up exhibition with their teacher on an Internet site

from their workshops. The Internet site will be

accessible from the VR on a browser and connected

to the schools homepage as well. Open day in the VR

where students invite their parents to the virtual

exhibition that have also been set up in the school.

One computer with Internet access will be open in the

school with a video projector for everyone to test.

Future Research

Other work in this field includes design-based

research (Hannafin 2004; cp. Action Research Carr &

Kemmis 1989) in using the new Innovation Education

model with focus on the approaches to teaching,

studying and learning on creative skills inside of the

VR in order to improve upon their ideation. The

process is most likely to be done in interaction with

several partners. The focus of the research will be

mainly upon pupil’s learning and studying, planning

of teaching; teaching and using information and

communication technology inside the VR and in the

classroom. Three case studies will be organized on

the innovation education model of 11–12 year old

pupil’s use of the virtual reality and the data driven

software. The outcomes of this work will be used for

courses for in-service teacher training and teacher

trainees who want to use virtual school environment

for Innovation education (IE) in the future.

Conclusions

This paper has been revised in light of the

developmental research project intended to develop

pedagogical model for Innovation Education (IE) in

the school environment and some of the basic

principles and technological solutions developed for

studying IE in virtual reality environments. More

general background for the model is, that creative

work can occur in all areas in the schools if educators

are willing to foster and fully utilize the creative

intelligence of the individual – we should remember

that the play of young (as well the adult) and the

creative process are very much linked (e.g. Lehtonen

2004). Joy, play and creativity are best seen in

environments, both offline an online, which are

attractive and allow students or pupils to be active,

playfulness, and creative and use multimodal

communication with joint real activities outside the

VR. InnoEd environment is to be one of such

playground for joy, play and innovations. Innovation

is therefore construed as an awakening and

reinforcement for creative work in all areas in the

schools. The Innovation process plays a bigger role

in the educational system than before as technology

moves forward. Innovation can be, to a certain

degree, one answer to the need for a creative

emphasis in modern and for the future education.

With the use of virtual reality the innovation

methodology can be used in all subject areas. The

virtual reality assists with open communication

without borders and provides an opportunity for

ideation with the educational use of communication

and information technology as a cross curriculum

way to improved education.

The virtual reality system offers the participants in

the InnoEd project many new opportunities for

ideation. They no longer have to be passive

spectators but can experience, collaborate and

construct in the virtual world in a number of ways.

The data-driven software gives opportunity for

recording every step taken in the system and makes it

easily possible to research the ideation process inside

of the virtual learning environment.

Modern society and its economic implications are

increasingly built on knowledge and working with

ideas. The teamwork, shared expertise and building

ideas together in European wide markets are the

current trends nowadays (Alamäki, Mäkinen &

Lehtonen 2003). The modern environment is always

changing because of new technology and knowledge.

In order to manage with that modern environment the

individual must be able to adapt to novelty and to see

possibilities in using new knowledge to produce new

products IE environments are increasingly relevant

for ideation and collaboration, which in later phases

goes outside the VR for concrete prototyping but still

works together with process inside the VR.
