The Edusim project is bringing 3D virtual learning environments into the classroom by leveraging Open source Cobalt and the classroom interactive whiteboard for direct manipulation of 3D virtual learning worlds. Edusim is a slimmed down verion of the core Open Cobalt Metaverse Project. Cobalt - Edusim is a 3D multi-user virtual world platform and authoring toolkit intended for your classroom interactive whiteboard (but equally powerful on the students laptop or desktop computers !). Cobalt - Edusim has been tested and works on the Smartboard, Activeboard, Interwriter, Polyvision, Mimio, eBeam, and even the Wiimote Whiteboard. Edusim is extendable allowing multiple classrooms to connect their interactive whiteboards for collaborative learning session.
