Dr. Christian Jonathan Angel Rueda on "Building Bridges in the Digital Realm: Exploring 3D Immersive Environments and Virtual Reality/Virtual Worlds for Inclusion of Blind and Deaf Individuals in a Multifaceted Society"
The importance of creating an inclusive society by utilizing 3D immersive environments and virtual reality. It focuses on the inclusion of individuals with visual and hearing impairments, aiming to bridge the digital gap. By exploring these technologies, we can provide opportunities for blind and deaf individuals to participate in shared virtual experiences, ultimately fostering social inclusion in a multifaceted society.
The ninth annual Second Life MOOC (renamed the Virtual World MOOC in 2018) started in 2014. VWMOOC23 will take place from September 1-30, 2023 on Moodle for Teachers https://integrating-technology.org/course/view.php?id=114
The theme of the current MOOC is “Connecting in Virtual Worlds. Communities of Practice” There is a plethora of communities in virtual worlds promoting education and learning through connecting online via web technologies such as Second Life. The MOOC will focus on connecting online for collaborative learning and teaching around the world through virtual worlds like Second Life, Digiworldz, Kitely, Minecraft, Artificial Intelligence (AI) Augmented Reality (VR), Virtual Reality (VR), or OpenSim.
