Collaborative Work on 3D Educational Content<br />

The third direction for future work is further studying the design <strong>of</strong> educational<br />

environments within 3D CVEs. This direction will include exploring the dem<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong><br />

educational simulations <strong>and</strong> serious games. The work in this direction has already<br />

started within a pilot project Cultural Awareness in Military Operations in<br />

collaboration with the Norwegian Armed Forces <strong>and</strong> the University <strong>of</strong> Oslo.<br />

The fourth direction is further exploration <strong>of</strong> the support for learning communities<br />

in 3D CVEs. This direction might include studying new ways <strong>of</strong> using 3D CVE<br />

affordances for supporting creative communities <strong>and</strong> Communities <strong>of</strong> Interest in a<br />

cross-disciplinary <strong>and</strong> multi-cultural context. More studies can be conducted<br />

strengthening the ‘Universcity’ framework by implementing other infrastructure<br />

elements <strong>and</strong> testing them as it was done with the Virtual Science Fair.<br />
