Resumen de Virtual role-playing shows kids the harm of bullying
A virtual reality system, which is on trial in 10 schools in Massachusetts, seeks to give kids a perspective on how cruel treatment affects their peers. Called SchoolLife, the system portrays what happens when John, a shy and bookish boy, accidentally jostles a popular girl called Sarah. She then tells people to ignore him and posts cruel messages on Facebook, no matter how much John apologizes. SchoolLife is the creation of GiantOtter, a start-up in Boston co-founded by Geoff Marietta.
