This is a small, web-based plugin that allows you and your students to manipulate the 3D environment in which our virtual patients live. It is a free download. If you do not already have the Unity Web Player installed on your campus computer, we recommend doing this before your class session. It is not uncommon that administrator permission is needed to download a web plugin on classroom computers. -- - - - - - - - - - Continued [Show More]
