An Interactive Learning Environment for Edutainment

چکیده
The development of new interactive technologies inevitably has an impact on education and entertainment. This paper describes a virtual learning environment to support and improve day-to-day teaching for short age children. We introduce a 3D playground where children find personalized aspects depending on their ages and tastes. The edutainment environment incorporates a series of difficulty levels depending on the age and skill of the players. There are currently four kinds of basic games available to users, namely, (a) a construction game, (b) a memory-like game, (c) a puzzle-like game, and, (d) a mathematics game. A personal pedagogical agent and a virtual book assist children at any time.
