- This paper identifies and provides solutions for using immersive collaborative environments for learning. This enabled the potential of Multi User Virtual Environments to extend experiential and collaborative learning to be realised. Based upon survey, experience in using immersive environments priorities for supporting users are identified. Through developing, using and evaluating solutions work reported in the paper motivates the need for management, establishes priorities and demonstrates the effectiveness of solutions.
This seminal work has informed thinking and practice in the growing use of Multi User Learning Environments (MULEs) being explored by researchers in confederations such as the Immersive Learning Research Network.
