== Foreword ==
<blockquote>
Education (''v-learning'') is one of the major applications (''referred as '''Serious games''''') in metaverses because it expands the capability of the current e-learning by adding the 3D immersion. 
They are several ways to use metaverses for education such as but not limited to: 
* '''using the metavers as a sandbox''':
<blockquote>
* building objects (''geometry learning'')
* create collaborative work (''team building'')
* learn new technologies (''use Chat, Instant messaging, Voice chat, etc'')
* ease socialization (''easy access for disabled persons, avatars are proxies and avoid a prior'')
* learn foreign languages and cultures (''Chat instant translator is available for most languages'')
</blockquote>
* '''using the metavers as a classroom''':
<blockquote>
* recreate the classroom interactivity thanks to boards, slide and video screens
* enable the students inter activities through paper boards, chat, voice chat, instant massaging (IM)
* provide students an after-course environment to continue group's exchanges
* enable student-to-student instant messaging during classroom
* student inactivity is visible through the avatar behavior
</blockquote>
* '''using the metavers as a volume''':
<blockquote>
* macro and micro scale (''objects'') can coexist
* well suited for basic astronomy learning
* easy 3D representation of complex molecules
</blockquote>

== Examples ==
<blockquote>
* '''Metavers as a sandbox: Art, physic workshops '''

* '''Metavers as a Classroom: Amphitheater '''
''see also [[Q-Sims_-_Applications#Education|Education]]''
[[Image:Q-Sims_away.jpg|thumb|500px|center|Classroom with a sleepy student!]]
* Create '''video screen''': see [[Q-Sims_-_Add_Music_and_Movies#Add_Movies| Add movies]]
* Create a '''slideshow''': Rez a flat prims, place your slides converted as JPG images into the prims Contents folder. Add the SlideShow [[Media:Slideshow.lsl|script]].
* Create a white/'''blackboard''' - look for the justincc's graffiti board script.
* To enable Voice chat read [[Q-Sims_-_Add_Voice_Chat|this]]
* Create a '''paper board''': Rez a flat prims. Write a notecard with the text to display. Rename the notecard as "message" and put the [[Media:Paper board.lsl|script]] and the notecard into the prims Contents folder. Touch the prims to update the display.
