Before revision: Mixed Reality (MR) enables users to explore a wonderland which is not realizable in the physical world. This provides users with the chance to communicate in many different ways. We present our MR multi-user workstation system to investigate how different configurations of participants and content affect communication between people in the same immersive environment. We implemented mirrored face-to-face communication, side-by-side communication and eyes-free communication by using the presentation tool Chalktalk as the contentcreation server and designing a multi-user MRenvironment.
After revision: Teaching that uses projected presentation media such as slide-shows lacks support for dynamic content whose form and behaviors require live changes during a lecture. Recent software alternatives such as the Chalktalk software platform allow the creation of interactive simulations in arbitrary sequences and combinations within presentations. These more dynamic solutions, however, do not optimize for face-to-face communication, side-by-side communication and eyes-free communication by using the presentation tool Chalktalk as the contentcreation server and designing a multi-user MRenvironment.
