VCLASS-3D{sup}*: A MULTIMEDIA EDUCATIONAL COLLABORATION PLATFORM WITH 3D VIRTUAL WORKSPACE SUPPORT

摘要

Education has always been the grounds of experiments especially when regarding new technologies as it stands for the place of birth of many of the technological evolution. Still, strange as it may sound, very few from the technological advances find real application in educational society. In this paper, we are presenting an educational platform based on collaborative virtual workspaces, featuring advanced multimedia capabilities. The key feature to this platform is that it targets on assisted learning making use of interactive 3D technologies, in order to accommodate the needs of primary school education.
