Project Overview
Museums and Educational 3D Virtual Environments.
The project leverages synergy between research into 3D virtual environments at UNT and museum education and presentation research at UAEM. The purpose of this research grant is to 1) explore the use of existing 3D virtual technologies to bring the museums into online 3D experiences, 2) examine pedagogical approaches of these virtual learning environments, 3) support doctoral research, and 4) increase awareness of the potential of creating 3D virtual museums.
