What advantages would the ability to access virtual worlds through mobile devices (especially tablets) afford educators?

19 April 2013 1 3K Report

We are increasingly turning towards mobile learning. Is there a place for virtual worlds in this milieu?

If you were out in the field, you could practice a procedure virtually at the site before tackling it in the real world. I'm thinking about a procedure on a production animal or something of that nature. Or you could manoeuvre a model before tackling a task. Would that be useful?
