Wow! 3D immersion in the classroom
20th September
Wow!! If you have time before the end of the day then you must visit the ‘amazing interactives‘ stand in the education village. I have just seen the future and believe it really is in 3D!
The guys there are showcasing their 3D stereoscopic projection facility that creates the most incredible immersive experience. You have to wear a pair of cool sunglasses that allow you to see the projections in full stereoscopic 3d glory. It really was incredible. A group of children were there at the tim e and they were gasping with delight and attempting to touch what they thought was right before their eyes.
The link with the games world is that this system can be used with Second Life and with other games such as Thinking Worlds from Caspian Learning. In thinking Worlds the learners would create their 3D world and then they could virtually walk about in it.
This is a resource that I can honestly say that I found breathtaking. It really is something else and I urge you to have a look before the end of the day.

I agree with you here. I thought the 3D cinema was excellent and loved the animations of the heart and lungs. I was a bit disapointed that there were no Geography resources yet - but I am sure they will follow soon.
