Abstract

Creating a descriptive and to some degree prescriptive taxonomy of place and describing the confusing but vital concept of culture only takes us so far. We also need to explore game-style interaction and how virtual environments can learn from its fundamental components in order to make them both more engaging and more educational. This chapter discusses related how we can apply game-style interaction for virtual environments and provides examples and prototypes that aim to break down the ‘magic circle’, immerse participants spatially, and thematically incorporate peripherals and interfaces into the learning environment. Using these ideas we can also incorporate more effective feedback mechanisms and evaluation strategies.
