Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes generating a virtual learning environment comprising a three-dimensional interactive virtual environment. The virtual learning environment includes at least one student avatar related to a user and a second avatar that functions as an automated tutor. The automated tutor is powered by an AI processor and machine learning to generate interactive real-time responses in response to queries input by the user.
