چکیده
The rapid developments in the field of online threedimensional (3D) virtual worlds have considerable impact on education activities. Therefore, the 3D designers and teachers start to consider the interaction between design and usability of 3D virtual learning spaces as essential tool for educational systems. For the purpose of our research, a virtual learning space was created as a chemistry class using EON software tools. The paper describes the experiments conducted by this learning space and our conclusions in terms of design and usability.
