Brief History of DollarBay

DollarBay is part of the North Dakota State University GAMES Project, which is a successor to the long vanished GAMES project at North Western University's Institute for the Learning Sciences. That project, canceled in 1994, resulted in single prototype, which was only informally tested and was never released.

DollarBay is one of the many Virtual Environments for education at North Dakota State University. The NDSU Worldwide Web Instructional Committee (WWWIC) is engaged in developing a range of Virtual Environments for Education. Their purpose is to design and develop educational media that share critical assumptions and technologies in order to leverage from each others efforts, developing common tools for development.
