SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRAINING WITH A VIRTUAL APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A method of training in conjunction with a computer animation executed by a computing environment, the method comprising:
- creating a logical construct including establishing a set of consistent rules;
providing a virtual apparatus with virtual components that are manipulated by a user being trained;
teaching the user to understand logically consistent goals by using the virtual apparatus and without language interaction;
modeling properties and the set of consistent rules for a subject area to the user by the virtual apparatus without language interaction;
teaching the user to operate the virtual apparatus without language interaction; and
requesting the user to operate the virtual apparatus to reach goals in a sequence of problems having progressive difficulty and without language interaction.

Abstract
A method and system of training in conjunction with a computer animation executed by a computing environment is described. The method includes recognizing a task to be performed in the computer animation, recognizing a problem, displayed in the computer animation, to accomplish the task, and solving the problem by manipulation of a virtual apparatus having virtual components displayed in the computer animation. The virtual components are manipulated by a student or user desiring to learn. The student is taught to understand logically consistent goals by using the virtual apparatus and without language interaction. Rules and properties for a subject area are modeled to the student by the virtual apparatus without language interaction. The student is taught to operate the virtual apparatus without language interaction. The student is requested to operate the virtual apparatus to reach goals in a sequence of problems having progressive difficulty and without language interaction.
