摘要
This article describes VirtualTouch, a tool for developing mixed reality educational applications. VirtualTouch proposes the use of virtual worlds and tangible user interfaces to offer a "mixed reality" experience. Using VirtualTouch a teacher may easily design learning modules, which are immediately implemented and used in the classroom. A first experience of such use, focused in the area of inclusive education, is also presented. The results of this experience are encouraging, showing that mixed reality applications have a high potential for use in this area.
