Virtual environments in which users can navigate freely through spatial representations, pick up and examine objects, and “converse” with virtual characters, can play a role in transferring information and knowledge for both training and education. This paper discusses design issues encountered when creating such an environment for grade-five primary school students. Résumé: Les environnements ...
