HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing

The HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing Simulation teaches students how to calculate heating and cooling loads and properly size HVAC systems for different buildings. Virtual tools are provided for load calculation, factoring in building insulation, square footage, number of occupants, and climate conditions. Students then engage in interactive scenarios to select the appropriate HVAC equipment based on the calculated loads. Real-time feedback is provided on the accuracy of system sizing, energy efficiency, and overall occupant comfort.

Chronic Disease Management and Patient Education

The Chronic Disease Management and Patient Education module equips nursing students with the skills to support patients in managing chronic conditions. Through virtual interactions and interactive lessons, students practice guiding patients on lifestyle adjustments, medication adherence, and monitoring techniques, while focusing on education strategies that promote self-care, symptom control, and early complication recognition.

Advanced Drain Cleaning and Maintenance

Explore advanced drain cleaning techniques and tools used to maintain clear drainage systems. Virtual practice with augers, plungers, and hydro-jetting equipment to tackle slow drains and blockages.

Soldering and Pipe Joining Simulation

Learn how to properly join pipes using techniques like soldering, brazing, and push-to-connect fittings. This simulation provides virtual practice in soldering copper pipes, selecting appropriate flux and heat sources. It also covers other joining techniques such as compression fittings, solvent welding for PVC, and press fittings for PEX. Feedback is given on joint strength, leakage prevention, and adherence to safety standards.

Geriatric and Palliative Care Simulation

The Geriatric and Palliative Care Simulation module equips nursing students with essential skills to care for elderly patients and provide compassionate support in palliative care settings. Through virtual interactions, students address mobility challenges, pain management, medication adherence, and cognitive decline while learning to support patients and families during end-of-lifecare with empathy and professionalism.

Genetic Engineering and Gene Editing

The Genetic Engineering and Gene Editing module trains students on techniques for modifying the genetic makeup of organisms. Through virtual tools and interactive lessons, students explore gene editing methods like CRISPR and gain insights into creating genetically modified organisms (GMOs) while considering ethical implications.

LMS Integration

imaginX seamlessly integrates with leading LMS (Learning Management Systems), enabling educators to track student performance and allowing students to maintain their work records. It is compatible with popular platforms such as Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, Google Classroom, Schoology, Sakai, Brightspace/D2L, and can also be used independently of an LMS.
