The village

The advantage of Second Life is being able to change the learning environment to suit the learners. The first years have got into building little homes, so I've set them the task of creating a village. A quick bit of region texture tweaking and terraforming, and look of the land now suits the task.

Manatee's Symbol tree

Top level 3 student builds a 'Symbol tree'. The black pixel version led me to reminisce about my first computer, a 1K ZX81.

4. Getting Feedback from an MUVE experience

Submitted by admin on Tue, 08/26/2008 - 15:43.

4. Feedback

“But what really tipped it for me was the lack of tools in SL for getting feedback from the audience.
How do I know I am being heard - do I need to adjust volume, where is
the back channel for people to participate, ask questions … and so on?
Status indicators are key.” http://www.openhabitat.org/blogfeed/second-life/six-barriers-innovation-learning-and-teaching-muves david white edit: Steven Warburton

Funny that the lack of interactive technologies would send someone
from a very new technology to an older technology to allow for more
interaction. The pitch on MUVEs has always been that they are
’supremely’ interactive and give people a sense of embodiment. It might
be just a lack of needed literacies (different feeback mechanisms…
maybe something like twitter?) but it might be an indication of MUVEs
really being at the PacMan stage of development.
