 * Designing Holograms as Learning Spaces in Virtual Worlds**

Imagine a world in which students can visit a scene from a book, a moment in history or a lab environment and use interactive objects and artificial intelligence for guided or asynchronous learning. This session demonstrates how to design and integrate learning scenes into an open source virtual Holodeck device. The portability of the tool and how to design new scenes are covered in the session.
