The proposed project aims to support teaching in hybrid telepresence settings by developing and embedding examplar explorable explanations into the Satellite hub, an immersive 3D social web environment developed at the Society for Arts and Technology (SAT) using Mozilla Hubs. Explorable explanations are interactive documents that use visualizations, animations, and simulations to help learners understand complex concepts. The project will integrate explorable explanations in Mozilla Hubs used for Satellite by adapting Spoke to defining dynamic assets with interactivity. This integration will allow for the creation of immersive and interactive educational environments that cater to diverse abilities in learning and allow learners to play with parameters to deepen their understanding of the concepts. The project seeks to create synergy by interconnecting various cultural and artistic contents in the Satellite hub and embedding explorable explanations to enhance the learning experience. The explorable explanations will be designed to cater to a broad audience and facilitate access to learning. The project will involve prototyping examplar explorable explanations and embedding them in Satellite / Mozilla Hubs, leveraging the capabilities of the platform to provide an immersive learning experience. The aim is to enhance the teaching of digital arts concepts in hybrid telepresence campus settings and promote interactivity and innovation in teaching, leveraging emerging technologies to enhance the learning experience. Ultimately, the project will contribute to promoting interactivity and innovation in teaching, leveraging emerging technologies to enhance the learning experience.
