UNT/UAEM Joint Research Project on Museum

The CRG framework was choosen as the delivery system for a joint research project at the University of North Texas (UNT) and the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico (UAEM). The study examined the effectiveness, usability, and knowledge acquisition between the real Leopoldo Flores Museum at the UAEM and a 3D online virtual museum replica. The results show a) students using the virtual environment first and then visiting the museum exhibited higher discourse with the guide and better knowledge acquisition about the museum, and b) that the virtual museum experience when used alone was a comparable experience to the actual museum guided tour in both knowledge gained and satisfaction.

More information on the project can be found at Museum and Educational 3D Virtural Environments.
