, participated in the study. They were at the end of AP calculus course andhad completed such topics as application and computation of derivatives. The students wereinformed about the goal of the research and that the experiments would be conducted in theschool’s Teacher’s room, outside of regular calculus class time and that each session would last60-90 minutes.The simulated in the Second Live VE setting includes a pond with shallow water, surrounded bybushes and trees (Figure 1). Figure 1. Simulated in the Second Life VE SettingThe environment is programmed so that walking/running speed on land is twice as fast aswalking/running speed in water. There are two green small round platforms: one platform islocated on land near the
