Abstract | This paper discusses the use of Virtual Reality (VR) in e-learning environments where an intelligent three-dimensional (3D) virtual person plays the role of an instructor. With the existence of this virtual instructor, it is hoped that the teaching and learning in the e-environment will be more effective and productive. This virtual 3D animated character can actually be programmed to have a natural human touch to help bridge the gap between a machine and a student. A virtual instructor that has an almost true-to-life look and feel of a human being will make the students feel more comfortable and confident to learn. (Contains 15 references.) (Author/AEF) |
