More specifically, this lecture will illustrate how visual elements in a 3D animated virtual world can hook students’ interests to facilitate their learning. During the one hour discussion time, participants will have the opportunity to try out the virtual learning environment and take part in a forum where ideas and views can be exchanged on the benefits and/or disadvantages for teaching and learning in such an environment.
