The production, distribution, and consumption of information are the most important development indices of any nation. Plenty of opportunities were created by e-learning which have overall paved the grounds for and enriched the presentation of learning materials through advanced audiovisual educational facilities. Such learning environments are by and large flexible and provide more appropriate...

background:electronically -learning has created a new horizon in the world of education. the purpose of this is improving the quality of education and conserving (saving) time for teachers and students; this training can facilitate and strengthen the process of review. since mashhad university of medical sciences trains the applicants for family medicine as mph virtually, we decided to study th...

Reinforcement learning is considered as a promising direction for driving policy learning. However, training autonomous driving vehicle with reinforcement learning in real environment involves non-affordable trial-and-error. It is more desirable to first train in a virtual environment and then transfer to the real environment. In this paper, we propose a novel realistic translation network to m...

This article is an overview of online virtual learning environments for discovery learning. The paper defines Virtual Learning Environments and discusses literature findings on the benefits of using web-based VEs for self-directed learning. It gives an overview of the latest technologies/platforms used to develop online VEs, discusses development and delivery challenges posed by complex, inform...

As part of their learning process, students often need to understand and interact with real world processes. Traditional learning activities such as field trips, site visits, videos, visiting speakers and live interviews have been used to achieve this. Because of various practical, legal and political issues, such activities can be difficult or even impossible to organise. E-learning can play a...

Virtual Campus is an Internet application in education. It combines the advantages of both group and individual learning approaches based on advanced network technologies. Virtual Campus models the new learning environment where students can customize their study in their own pace. Providing up-to-date learning material and personal study guide, Virtual Campus is an ideal study environment for ...

Interactive virtual worlds provide a powerful medium for experiential learning. Intelligent virtual agents can cohabit virtual worlds with people and facilitate such learning as guides, mentors, and teammates. This paper reviews the main pedagogical advantages of animated agents in virtual worlds, discusses two key research challenges, and outlines an ambitious new project addressing those chal...

When investigating perceptual learning (PL), most researchers use real figures as stimuli, but PL can occur when subjects are trained with virtual stimuli or even without any visual stimuli at all. Here, we first demonstrated that virtual lines have the same perceptual attributes as real lines by confirming that there is also an oblique effect in virtual lines (formed by a pair of circles) in a...
