Virtual Real Worlds and Education
"The ultimate goal of the educational system is to shift to the individual the burden of pursuing his or her education" - John W. Gardner
Tele3DWorld and MellaniuM have the ability to create hyper-realistic real time virtual 3D models and environments for educational purposes. These 3D environments can be explored on a computer and over the internet from of the user's home or other place.
Education lecturers, teachers, students, pupils, etc., can walkthrough and interact with existing or future educational courses/lectures environments just as if they were available or physically there. Using 3D avatars and models with animation can describe the topic more effectively using guidance speech, music and sound effects are played as the 3D environments are explored simultaneously by many people at any given time. This ability is very useful for creating an atmosphere conducive to learning.
