The virtual world as an interactive tool in education

Abstract

The Internet as a global communication media has the potential to bring about new forms of learning, and in this context, we emphasize a virtual learning environment (VLE). The main goal of this study is to demonstrate the virtual world and the positive aspects of its application in education, focusing on the use of such technology as an interactive tool allowing teachers and students to construct, share and interact in the same space and time in a three-dimensional virtual learning environment.
