This paper explores educational uses of virtual learning environment (VLE) concerned with issues of learning, training and entertainment. We analyze the state-of-art research of VLE based on virtual reality and augmented reality. Some examples for the purpose of education and simulation are described. These applications show that VLE can be means of enhancing, motivating and stimulating learner...

Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) have provided new perspectives for access to information and enhance learning. However VLE have advantages and positive impact on learning, there are still defies to their design and production. This paper focuses on the presentation and comparison of Learning Design approaches used to design and implement a VLE. In the literature, several Learning Design ap...

iSocial is a 3D Virtual Learning Environment (3D VLE) to develop social competency for students who have been identified with High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders. The motivation for developing a 3D VLE is to improve access to special needs curriculum for students who live in rural or small school districts. The paper first describes a number of innovative features developed to translate ...

Designing User Interface (UI) has an important role in user satisfaction. Students working in Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), experience great difficulties and encounter consumes most of their time attempting to learn an incomplete system design by inexperienced UI designers. The VLE system may contain analytical function and features with poor UI facility, Hence the effective use of the sy...

In this paper, multi-angle analysis of quantitative data mining warning system is completed, by using software engineering method. The study on the core issue of early warning is conducted, during divided the learning process in VLE platforms into three stages: former learning, study of middle and after learning. The studying route of core issues is: under the mode of Windows Server Apache, MYS...

During the previous decade web-based Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) has become general part of learning and curriculum. One of the most prominent virtual worlds is Second Life, because of dimensionless opportunities that result out of user created content. Many institutions such as universities, colleges and libraries have entered this 3D environment to explore its possibilities. As the Sec...

This article presents research towards the development of a virtual learning environment (VLE) inhabited by intelligent virtual agents (IVAs) and modelling a scenario of inter-cultural interactions. The ultimate aim of this VLE is to allow users to reflect upon and learn about intercultural communication and collaboration. Rather than predefining the interactions among the virtual agents and sc...
