Until now Virtual Worlds can support only synchronous meetings (all participants attend the meeting at the same time). All events in Virtual Worlds can be recorded in video format only. What is about " virtual" (3D) recording of live events in Virtual World: meetings, workshops, classes, collaborative learning? You do not have to look at the recorded event as a movie, you can attend to it. Our MMLab take part in project vAcademia. vacademia.com vAcademia has option to record classes in "virtual space". Students can go into the recorded class meeting and discuss it afterwards. Virtual records of classes give new opportunities for learning in Virtual World.
