Rezmela™ supports easy creation
of instructional scenes
A demonstration in VWMOOC19
A demonstration of the RezMela™ system. The system itself could work with any objects, thus allowing Illustrative layouts, as practice, or arrangements as student products.
- Key word: rez
- Rez: In virtual worlds, cause a virtual object to appear and become available for use
- The virtual object can be a building and its contents
- Education research calls virtual worlds MultiUser Virtual Environments (MUVEs)
- Educational research on MUVEs
Demonstration video
- Rethinking Content Creation in Virtual Environments (Video)
- Video is long--you don't need to watch in all at once.
- Ann von Rhein (avatar in SL) and the Origin team in Open Sim
- New way of creating learning environments without knowledge of building or coding.
- Example apps show how educators can get educational content without building.
- The environments show the application of RezMela™tools across learning domains.
- Created scenes can be saved and recreated later (for other classes).
- Classes and groups of students can meet in the instructional scene.
- Teachers can teach in virtual worlds and rely on builders to build.

- They can rez guidance on presentations when they need it.
- That can be a roadmap for preparing presentations if you want.
A museum beside
your class room
- And it is only there when you want it.
- Or when your class needs it for their studies.
- Museums could be designed by subject matter experts.
- Just as text books were supposed to be prepared.
- A museum could be used by an unlimited number of classes.
- And the classes can be anywhere in the world.
