What could 3D do for language learning?
Posted by David Wees on Jan 29, 2010
So I've had a thought about the direction of language learning. I've been experimenting with 3D interactive worlds (specifically OpenSim), which are programs which let people interact with each other real-time in 3D. Pretty cool stuff. This is already being used to help people learn languages as many of the 3D servers offer the ability to communicate with each other via voice and text.
