3D Virtual Learning Environment

Abstract

Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is the learning through electronic media where teachers and students are not in the same place, but the gap is bridged by the use of technologies. The aim of this study is to develop a 3D virtual learning environment (3D VLE). The three objectives of this study are (i) to gather the requirements of 3D VLE, (ii) to design the 3D VLE, and (iii) to develop the 3D VLE. The method consists of five phases; (i) literature review, (ii) requirement gathering, (iii) design, (iv) development and (v) evaluation. The prototype is developed by using Open Simulator, SLOODLE and Moodle. Future work includes enhancement for 3D VLE such as using gesture recognition to control the avatar movement.

Overcoming online learning challenges in the COVID-19 pandemic by user-friendly platform

“…Moodle is an open-source software (OSS) that can be developed based on the institution's needs. The previous researches in several countries indicate the advantages and benefits of using Moodle as an online learning platform, as Kasim [34] and Isa [35] in Malaysia, Feng [36], Zabolotniaia [30], and Sun [37] in China, Ching-Hong Luk [38] in Hongkong, Peerapolchaikul [39] in Thailand, Zelinskiy [31] in Ukraine, Miller [40] in Canada, Rakic [41] in Austria, and Liu [28] in Russian.…”
