Introduction
We can easily agree that one of the biggest challenges for the current situation is for schools and universities to organize online education. Within this, one of the priority areas is the training of future art historians, curators, architects, designers and graphic artists who deal with images, drawings, art objects on a daily basis and for whom it is vital to have access to new teaching methods and tools that effectively support their work. Th
What is the traditional method of teaching today
We are used to seeing images uploaded to instagram that are no different from jpegs that can be downloaded from google. Their visual quality is limited. From a frontal angle, we obtain information on the subject in 2D, which is a very modest artistic experience for the recipient and provides very few tools for his study. The teacher introduces students to the visual content that is included in the curriculum, as far as pictures need to be shown in the lecture, on a projector, on a computer monitor or by circulating an album and a collection of pictures. Similarly, students also keep their papers following this methodology. These are collectively referred to as lectures, which largely dominate the method of knowledge transfer to this day. Lecture is a monologue method of oral communication, which is used to explain a topic logically, in detail, over a relatively long period of time. This method has already been used by the Greeks, its original name (lectare) means reading the text aloud. Effective presentation presupposes a thorough knowledge of the material and free narration. The length of the lecture can range from 15–20 minutes to 1.5–2 hours, mainly depending on the previous experience of the audience.
The presented aids can serve several functions, they can contain the structure of the presentation, the frame, the main points or illustrations, tables, quotations that support the following of the analysis performed by the speaker and the co-thinking with him / her. The aim of a good lecture is to put what is said into a coherent whole and to integrate it into the students ’prior knowledge.
What's new at Walter’s Cube for Universities?
Walter’s Cube for Universities is a novelty in the way it performs. Using the tool of the virtual gallery, the teacher can present the topic much more sensitively and efficiently by preparing and updating the material from lecture to lecture, who can also present their reports in the virtual space and submit their dissertations using the virtual space.
Walter’s Cube for Universities turns lectures into breathtaking presentations where students take part in a real guided tour led by the presenter and have access to all the important information with the descriptions associated with the images. Here they can not only see the exact scale of the presented objects, but they can get acquainted with the literature, ask questions and study the object to be presented more thoroughly in all respects.
The table below illustrates the classic scheme within which Walter’s Cube for Universities helps organize education more effectively than any previous procedure.

the lecturer can present to the students the objects and topics that are part of the lecture within the framework of a breathtaking spatial experience. The descriptions presented can be accompanied by text descriptions, and the link to the exhibition can be given to students to review. Students can also solve the tasks received from the instructor by uploading them to one of these virtual rooms, and submit their dissertations via one of these links.
