Naace (UK) Tour : 1 March 08

My first tour of the Island to a group from the UK ... and what better than members of Naace the premier professional organisation in the UK with a technology and (k-12) education mission.
A small select group ... going for quality rather than quantity as they say in the time-share business. (it was also 9:00am on a Saturday)
I'm certainly feeling much more comfortable working in S.L. and, just like in the real world, small groups allow for more 1:1 interaction.
As my own confidence in the environment grows then so does my resolve that this is going to be an invaluable tool not only for teacher cpd but also supporting student (lifelong) learning.
In the presentations I do in the real world about virtual worlds (Second Life in particular) there is one PowerPoint slide in my 'show' that sums up the reasons for persevering ...
- Massive Constructivism
- Participatory Culture
- User Created Content
- Not a Game (but games can be played in S.L.)
For those who attended ... it would be brilliant if you could add your feedback and views in the 'comments' below .... I am enjoying these more and more ... and the 'following chairs' are still a novelty .. I feel like one of Santas (talking) raindeer ;-)
