3D Virtual Worlds
• Multiuser• Synchronous• Persistent• Facilitated by networked computers• Each user is represented by a single avatar• Three-dimensional graphical interphase• Social Worlds/Game Worlds
3D Virtual Worlds
• Multiuser• Synchronous?• Persistent?• Facilitated by networked computers• Each user is represented by a single avatar?• Three-dimensional graphical interphase• Social Worlds/Game Worlds
3D Virtual Worldsas learning environments
• Low cost and high safety• Three-dimensional representation of learners
and objects• Interaction in simulated contexts • Sense of presence • Variety of tools
