In this paper we describe a virtual 3D lab created using Open Wonderland to enable simultaneous execution of different computer science simulator modules in a collaborative, immersive workspace. Simulators were divided into functional modules that can be reused and combined for different teaching topics based on statistics of their usage. We discuss some important issues in our platform setup, describe our learning environment and logging module we developed in order to track system usage. Preliminary usability testing confirms the efficiency of this approach.

Abstract
In this paper we describe a virtual 3D lab created using Open Wonderland to enable simultaneous execution of different computer science simulator modules in a collaborative, immersive workspace. Simulators were divided into functional modules that can be reused and combined for different teaching topics based on statistics of their usage. We discuss some important issues in our platform setup, describe our learning environment and logging module we developed in order to track system usage. Preliminary usability testing confirms the efficiency of this approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
