Oregon State University New Media Communications Program
"We selected Virtools as an ideal solution for our students, who range from experienced programmers to non-programmers. Virtools' visual approach to programming interactive 3D experiences makes it an outstanding choice for any academic program—particularly in class settings where students need to learn the tools and concepts necessary to complete interactive projects in a single term. In preparation for teaching this software, I was able to attend the Virtools Dev 3-day training workshop in Montreal. This session greatly accelerated my learning curve and provided the background and hands-on experience necessary to begin using this tool in the classroom setting," said Mr. Todd Kesterson, Media Visualization Specialist.
