Popis: | During the last few years an increase of the offered distance learning programs is observed, resulting in a need for corresponding tools. Within this context, the present study examines comparatively Virtual Worlds and Videoconferencing, as supporting tools for the educational communication and dialogue in distance learning. Analysing media theories, in order to compare the two media, we observe that the virtual space itself, and its relationship with the user, could affect the educational communication and the educational activities from distance. |
