“Karl Kapp and Tony O'Driscoll are, amazingly, both the best theorists and practitioners in using virtual worlds in every type of educational venue. Many will love their vision, but I am more hooked on their practicality and hand-holding.”
Clark Aldrich, Author of Learning Online with Games, Simulations, and Virtual Worlds: Strategies for Online Instruction

"Kapp and O'Driscoll nailed it. The right balance of case studies, theories and practical advice for any organization pursing the use of virtual worlds for learning. If you are interested in virtual worlds for learning and collaboration, this book is for you."

As the world makes its way through a period of significant change, “Learning in 3D” couldn’t come at a better time. Today, organizations and individuals are being challenged to make the most of learning collaboratively. This book stimulates our thinking on how to maximize the impact of technology , while providing a practical blueprint – with ‘revolutionary’ examples – of how to bring a new dimension to learning.

"Tony O'Driscoll and Karl Kapp remind us that learning is the fourth dimension - and the one that really counts in collaboration. A must-read for the future of learning in environments virtual and otherwise."
Cathy Davidson, Ruth F. DeVarney, Professor of English at Duke University and Co-Director HASTAC/MacArthur Foundation Digital Media and Learning Competition.

Learning in 3d is about finally busting out of the classroom paradigm. The 3d environment is the learning story, and the learner is the hero in the story. As O'Driscoll and Kapp describe it, the learner drops onto the set and the action begins. This is my primary resource for a design book in 3D learning.

Well-research and full of practical techniques and insights, this is a “must have” book on virtual worlds.
