Sun Innovations Bring Text-free Curriculum, Virtual Reality to Campus
Saint Paul College Reduces Costs 70% with Sun Solutions
Minnesota’s Saint Paul College plans on implementing a textbook-free curriculum beginning this fall semester, and will offer some courses using Sun’s Project Wonderland, a Java and open-source toolkit for creating collaborative 3D virtual worlds, as part of an immersive virtual reality teaching project. The text-free curriculum was an easy decision for the the two-year technical college that has offered students access to the computer resources they needed anytime, anywhere, from any computer with Sun Ray 1 clients for 10 years.
