Collaborative Work on 3D Educational Content The exploration of learning communities support in 3D CVEs continued during the second empirical study on educational visualizations. Possibilities of 3D CVEs for creating a connection between education and research communities to the general public by exhibiting and presenting research projects in the form of 3D visualizations were explored. For these purposes, a new framework was developed and evaluated. It was called Virtual Research Arena and designed for creating awareness about educational and research activities, promoting cross-fertilization between different environments, and engaging the general public. Based on this framework, a prototype was developed and evaluated at the Norwegian Science Week festival in 2010. Both the study and the new framework are presented in Paper 6 of this thesis. The second empirical study on educational visualizations included the first International Summer School on Collaborative Technologies, Serious Games, and Educational Visualizations, organized by the TARGET project. The summer school was defined as a forum for the presentation of innovative approaches, developments, and outcomes of research projects, facilitating the exchange of ideas between students, researchers, and practitioners. The design of the summer school activities was intended to facilitate reflective dialogue in communities. Virtual campus of NTNU in Second Life was chosen as preliminary environment to evaluate ideas and concepts within the TARGET project. The details of the summer school are presented in Paper 8 of this thesis. The exploration on the support of learning communities in 3D CVEs continued in the third empirical study on educational visualizations, but at the time of writing the thesis, the results of the study were not fully analysed. However, the details of this study are presented in Paper 9 of this thesis. 36
