Realization

  • A model star system to

demonstrate the Newton's law of universal gravitation on cellestial mechanics

  • Users may add planets

to the system and

  • bserve their behaviour

Implementation

  • Planets detect the star

and are attracted to it

  • A control object allows

the user to spawn more planets

  • A board provides user

with information on touch

Conclusion

  • Second Life allows us to

perform classroom demonstrations on an unprecedented scale

  • A new dimension to e-

learning?

  • School by Play!
