Abstract

Virtual reality has been successful used in real estate, urban planning and video games etc. In this paper, we proposed to build an interactive virtual e-Learning environment using virtual reality technologies. With the help of Multi-Modal user interface, students can control their avatars to interactively communicate with virtual teachers and environment. This interactive e-Learning environment can increase the autonomy of students and enhance students' interest in learning.
