This is a picture of Bent's Fort from the Denver Business Journal.  The article goes on to say that the Immersive Education Club is moving to develop a virtual replica of Bent's Fort. High school students working with the Stanford Architectural design program are building this virtual, 3D fort with Minecraft and other on-line building tools.

Bent's Fort is one of the most popular Southeast Colorado historic sites.  This virtual Fort will bring this historic site to people around the world along with all of the historical information about the site and teaching opportunities.

This is an assignment from the Immersive Education course I am taking at Boston College.  The course is called Collaborative Computing.  For details visit immersive BC portal at:
