Education in virtual worlds is growing. Here is another example, a chemistry lab course. No risk, no fumes, no space. What university would not think about using this? With links to many other educational uses in virtual worlds.
Dr Bill Prensky, CEO of CNDG, introduces Dr Stephanie Dillon, Director of Freshman Chemistry Laboratories at Florida State University. Dr Dillon and her students discuss the advantages of learning using a virtual environment. Filmed on location at CNDG’s virtual campus.
