The Center for Educational and Digital Innovation (CIEDix) participated in the 10th edition of the SIMO Education Fair, one of Spain's premier events in the field of educational technology, attracting over 9,000 visitors. For the first time, the Xunta de Galicia hosted a stand to highlight the successful Galician educational model, recognized for its outstanding results.

 

This space, designed by CIEDix, featured various initiatives from the Ministry of Education, Science, Universities, and Vocational Training, including the New Pedagogical Architecture Plan, the Creative Poles, and the MEGA Plan for Educational Improvement in Galicia. The stand also showcased the work of the Eduardo Barreiros Vocational Training Innovation Center and Galicia's robust network of integrated Vocational Training centers, which have achieved record enrollment figures.

 

Throughout the three-day event, live demonstrations of Ágora Digital projects were held. Ágora Digital is a platform offering teachers digital resources to support innovative and experimental approaches to classroom learning. The cREAgal initiative, which advances hybrid teaching by providing digital materials aligned with Galician educational curricula and featuring free resources created by hundreds of teachers, was also presented. In addition, the Galiverso, a project employing virtual reality for educational purposes, was prominently featured.

 

Key attractions at the stand included the integration of artificial intelligence, cutting-edge technologies, a holographic screen, and a series of videos detailing the Xunta’s educational innovation programs.
