Paper Abstract:
|
3-D virtual environments for online learning may be considered a second generation of software for distance learning support and allows learning by doing. The construction of these environments with both proprietary and open technologies was the object of the work related in this paper. Methodology and processes used in the creation of 3-D objects and in the development of a collaborative learning environment software using virtual reality are presented as well as some details about implementation. A virtual tutor based on chat technology is also part of the designed and implement virtual laboratory aimed to support collaborative learning. |
