This project will take advantage of advanced technologies andstrategies proven successful in online role-playing games to createexciting opportunities for children in an after school context. There arealmost no examples of learning environments that build on lessons andstrategies from the commercial success of 3D online, role-playing games,environments that are populated by tens of thousands of users each day.Leveraging 3-D technologies and principles so successful for the gamingcommunity to develop educationally meaningful environments is a topic ofwhich we, as an educational community, know very little and which has muchpotential to engage typically underrepresented groups in SMT learning.This work is exploratory and has exciting potential both in terms of itsdirect service to the disadvantaged children at the local Boys and GirlsClubs and in terms of the broader implications of the research to informthe education community. Our 18 month relationship with the Boys and Girls Clubs is currentlystrong and recently Compaq and Microsoft donated $100,000 in equipment,software, and service to both local Boys and Girls Clubs to createTechnology Centers. The Quest Atlantis program is viewed as an excitingopportunity to integrate the computers in Club programming, and staff, andspace will be committed to the project. Continuing this relationship andleveraging this still-new technology and the current interest ininnovating with this equipment and software creates a timely opportunity.

该项目将利用先进的技术和类别在线角色扮演游戏中获得成功，从而在课后背景下为儿童创造机会。最多没有学习环境的例子是基于3D在线的商业成功，角色扮演游戏的商业成功，每天成千上万用户所占的环境，而将3-D技术和原则掌握。为游戏社区而言如此成功，以发展教育有意义的社区，这是一个典型的教育社区，而这是一个非常典型的社区，并且很少有一个典型的社区，并且很少有一个典型的社区。 SMT学习。这项工作是探索性的，并且在对当地男孩和女孩的处境不利的儿童的服务方面以及研究对教育社区的更广泛含义方面都具有令人兴奋的潜力。我们与男孩和女孩俱乐部的18个月恋爱关系目前是Strong，最近Compaq和Microsoft向当地男孩和女孩俱乐部捐赠了100,000美元的设备，软件和服务。 Quest Atlantis计划被认为是将计算机集成到俱乐部编程中的令人兴奋的运动，并且员工和空格将致力于该项目。继续这种关系，并将这种静止的技术和目前对此设备和软件的兴趣创造了及时的机会。
