******************************

How do you get avatar?

• You probably want to be registered so the system will know you when you come back.
• If the system knows you, it will give you the same avatar when you come back.
• No point in adjusting an avatar unless it will persist.

 3DWW orientation Part II

• Part II tells how  to get an avatar and customize it.
• I would not give students access to this capability immediately. 
• I would make it a privilege associated with some level of achievement. 

 What you can do here

Orientation II teaches:

• Customize avatar
• Manage profile
• Use radar
• Teleportation

Some things you can adjust

Click image to enlarge

• Use the arrow keys to walk around.
• There are signs with information.   
• And buttons to change the viewpoint.

Some options for appearance

• I think most people will take on human shape.
• Don't sweat the details.  Aim for "good enough."
• You will know more later and be able to do it better.

I recommend the human shape
