nurturing and enhancing problem-solving skills, stimulating creativity and innovation in digital design, as well
as presenting an engaging platform to become proficient at Adobe applications.

Elsayed remarked, “Digital art represents an innovative approach to bolstering learners’ 21st-century skills
as it employs various active and cooperative learning strategies within the classroom. The interactive

features of these programs not only make learning more engaging and enjoyable but also encourage
learners to innovate as young artists. This empowers them to design digital drawings across a spectrum of
artistic and engineering topics, from drawing tourist attractions and museums to depicting nature and the

Emirati flag. By doing so, it contributes to nurturing a sense of citizenship in the children.”

The ‘Fashion My Avatar: A Metaverse Immersive Designing Application,’ a pioneering online shopping
platform created by Nupa Riad, a graduate in the Master of Sciences in Interactive Educational Technology,
was also highlighted by HBMSU. This platform offers customers the ability to create their own bespoke 3D
avatars, which allows them to virtually try on new apparels, experiment with different styles and designs, as

well as find the ideal fit, providing them with a tailored and interactive purchasing experience.

Riad commented, “This project marks a distinctive fusion of design and innovation in the digital shopping
landscape, elevating the user experience and fostering engagement with technical content. The application
empowers users to fully customise their avatars, from body shape to specific preferences, providing a virtual

shopping experience that transcends the ordinary. By immersing users in a virtual world, the application not
only adds moments of joy and excitement to their lives but also significantly improves and simplifies their
digital shopping journey. It transforms the process into an enjoyable and educational experience, enabling

users to explore and try on fashion at the convenience of their homes.”

These accomplishments underscore HBMSU’s pivotal role in empowering and raising a generation of highly

skilled scientific professionals in curriculum development, teaching, and digital higher education. By
highlighting these projects, HBMSU has reaffirmed its dedication to pushing the boundaries of scientific
research by embracing state-of-the-art technologies. These advancements are aimed at honing learners’

skills and giving them a competitive edge in diverse educational sectors and industries.
