Education is something that has not taken full advantage of the recent incredible technological boost the world has seen, but Immersive Education is leading the way with online learning. I feel education is still being accomplished mainly in classroom, and not enough is learned from the home using the internet. Video games like Second Life, and Wonderland will be a useful way for people to communicate and interact from anywhere in the world.
I think 10 years from today technology will have increased to the point where Voice Over IP and interaction will be basically seamless and instantaneous. Internet connections today seem pretty fast, but there are still many flaws that prevent online learning from being perfect. Besides the advances to networking graphics are going to be unbelievable in 10 years. I think they will basically be life like, so recreating important places to learn with will be exact to the smallest detail.
Immersive Education is leading the way in online learning and it has been a wonderful experience using some of their programs during this class. I think they have taken a step in the right direction, and in time people all around the world will be learning through online games.
