Poor sleep quality affects spatial orientation in virtual environments
Sleep is well known to have a significant impact on learning and memory. Specifically, studies adopting an experimentally induced sleep loss protocol in healthy individuals have provided evidence that the consolidation of spatial memories, as acquired through navigating and orienteering in spatial surroundings, is negatively affected by total sleep loss. Here, we used both objective and subject...
متن کاملSpatial Orientation in Virtual Environments: Background Considerations and Experiments
Spatial orientation strongly relies on visual and whole-body information available while moving through space. As virtual environments allow to isolate the contribution of visual information from the contribution of whole-body information, they are an attractive methodological means to investigate the role of visual information for spatial orientation. Using an elementary spatial orientation ta...
متن کاملSpatial Navigation: Spatial Learning in Real and Virtual Environments
Humans and many non-human animals need to accurately and efficiently navigate from one place to the next in their environment. Over 3,000 years ago the volcanic islands of the Pacific were settled by the people of Polynesia (Gibbons, 2001). These navigators sailed in craft from Samoa to Hawaii covering an area extending some 4,500 km without the benefits of modern navigational equipment. Errors...
متن کاملEvaluating Spatial Knowledge through Problem-Solving in Virtual Learning Environments
Modeling the cognitive processes of learners is fundamental to build educational software that are autonomous and that can provide highly tailored assistance during learning [3]. For this purpose, many student models have been developed. However to the best of the authors’ knowledge there is no model for the evaluation and teaching of spatial reasoning. This paper describes how a knowledge repr...
متن کاملSupporting Learning through Spatial Information Presentations in Virtual Environments
Though many researchers have suggested that 3D virtual environments (VEs) could provide advantages for conceptual learning, few studies have attempted to evaluate the validity of this claim. A wide variety of educational VEs have been developed, but little empirical evidence exists to help researchers and educators determine the effectiveness of these applications. Additional evidence is needed...
