Abstract

This study designed and developed virtual problem-based learning environments for preschool teachers in Science in the SecondLife environment. Accordingly, this study conduct usability tests with three testers. Then, the results of usability test and implication for the future study will be provided. Finally, this paper presents the significance of this research.
