2018 WW: Homes and Gardens. A web-world use case

Homes and Gardens.  A web-world use case
Updated 2/18/2018
For years people have been using virtual worlds to design homes and other buildings.  These are homes you (your avatar) can walk through, get pictures or videos in, put furniture in, and otherwise try in the draft stage.  The limiting factor has been the powerful computer and software installation needed to run the virtual worlds.  Now it is possible to  put a virtual house into a web-world that runs on a browser.  On a low-cost computer, Chromebook, or up-scale tablet.


Is there much interest in homes and gardens?

    2019 BIZ: #VWEDU: A place for people (you) to design gardens. Or other places. No lifting. No digging. Concentrate on placing and seeing the result.


    A place for people (you) to design gardens. 
    Or other places.  No lifting. No digging.  
    Concentrate on placing and seeing the result.

    A system to design any kind of layout (where you arrange things for attractive appearance or other purpose.)  The objects are supplied as inventory.   The user selects and places them.  Learners can practice placement.  Designers can do rapid prototyping.  Customers can see the planned layout before they approve it.

    Go there

    • Web link: Garden Palettes
    • Closed to Hypergrid (use a Kitely avatar)
    • Firestorm Hop (In Kitely paste in the address bar of Firestorm viewer, enter.)
    • hop://grid.kitely.com:8002/Garden Palettes/44/254/22

    2019 #VWEDU: #DTA: Rezmela™ supports easy creation of instructional scenes. A demonstration in VWMOOC19


    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.
