El Campus Virtual

La Universidad del Rosario, Bogotá, tiene varios campus, por lo que muchos estudiantes no tienen la oportunidad de visitar el campus original y principal construida en 1653 y que queda el centro de la ciudad. Este campus virtual, una replica del campus real, permite que los estudiantes la visiten para ver y entender el patrimonio y los tesoros históricos de la universidad.

En este mismo mundo virtual fue recreado un pueblo llamado Bojayá, donde tuvo lugar una masacre en 2002, resulto del conflicto guerrillero en Colombia. Los estudiantes del curso de ética que estudia la masacre entran al pueblo virtual y asumen el papel de cada uno de los personajes de la masacre. Reviven la masacre, y luego describen sus reacciones. Sus experiencias fureon comparados con un grupo de control que estudiaba la masacre en forma tradicional en clases.
