Vardix

On November 30, 2022, a very significant meeting with a delegation of representatives of Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools (NIS) and high-ranking members of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan was held at the RnD-Lab of VARDIX. This event was a landmark in the promotion of modern educational solutions, as laboratory staff presented to the guests the latest significant achievements obtained in the development of unique software aimed at improving the learning process in schools.

The meeting showcased innovative developments based on advanced technologies that are actively used in school education. The lab staff proudly spoke about their achievements in programming, creating tools and solutions that promote more effective and engaging learning.

Particular attention and passion was given to the important educational platform ROQED Science and its diverse applications. This innovative solution has been carefully designed to meet the needs of students and teachers, focusing on the school curriculum for students in grades 6-12 in key subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. ROQED Science offers unique opportunities for interactive and in-depth immersion in these sciences, providing students with an intuitive and hands-on understanding of complex concepts.

The ROQED Science platform offers a wide range of tools, including visualization, simulations, and virtual experiments, making learning more fun and accessible for students. Its functionality and flexibility allow for individualization of the educational process, allowing teachers to tailor materials to the level and needs of each student.

ROQED Science is an important tool that enriches the educational environment and helps students learn complex science concepts with fun and efficiency.

The event was an excellent opportunity for a delegation from the NIS and the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan to learn about advanced technological developments that can greatly enrich the educational process and improve the quality of education in schools.

ROQED Science began its remarkable journey as one of the component parts of VARDIX Labs, but it soon became a cohesive and independent company of its own format called ROQED. This transition from idea to reality was made possible by the dedicated efforts and creativity of the development team.

If you would like more information about ROQED products, including ROQED Science, we recommend visiting the official company website. On this interactive platform you will find a wealth of information about the platform itself and other impressive products offered by ROQED. The company’s official website provides access to a full range of features and resources to help you better understand and appreciate the benefits and potential of using ROQED products for educational purposes.

Hi all! Once again, we are pleased to present you the important AcademiX3D update (2022.1.8f8), in which we have prepared many innovations for you.

Very important changes:

In this release, we have added new interesting modes, and anyone can now buy AcademiX3D!

We listened to your requests and implemented a purchase system for individual use, not just in educational institutions. At the moment, two artifacts are available for purchase: for one month and for a year. In order to make a purchase, you need to click on the store icon in the application and click the “Buy” button next to the desired artifact. If you do not have a verified email, the program will send you an email to confirm your account.

To accept payment, we use the Xsolla payment service, which allows you to pay in any convenient way: card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and other services.

Please note that this is not a subscription, but a one-time purchase.

The purchase gives access to virtual patients, pathological anatomy, general anatomy and films.

Happy learning!

New modes added:

“Theory” mode – the user is given the opportunity to choose a specific disease and simulate it step by step at different levels. Depending on the section, the user must either determine the correct one of the proposed options or build the correct configuration on the chart. A full report is provided to the user upon completion of the study.

Pathological anatomy – this mode allows you to simulate pathomorphological changes characteristic of various diseases and syndromes on interactive 3D organ models. Both training and an exam with a report after passing are available in the mode. You can find out more on this page:https://vardix-group.com/patologiya3d/

Basic Anatomy is a human anatomy simulator that allows you to study the structure of the skeleton, internal organs, muscle, blood, etc. systems.

We’d love to hear your feedback on using the new modes!
