I am a Teacher currently responsible for creating online teaching tools for educators who use the university's college prep online courses to assist students getting ready for matriculation in a state school. I occupy a staff position and assist with the "packaging" of new courses for online distribution and also work indirectly via online training with high school and community college faculty who will be using the courses.
Thanks for the info on SL - sorry to have missed you in there. I'll be in and out over the weekend checking out the SL-element of the EduCon2.0 conference happening here: http://tinyurl.com/334rth The realspace element has a very cool wiki, here: http://educon20.wikispaces.com/
Hi Lee,
I have an online tutoring company and currently using a collaborative tool for providing tutorials. I want to know that how effective and viable SL environment is to suit our kind of teaching methods? Also, if possible can you tell me some of the universities or institutions that are using SL to give education and how are they actually doing it, i.e. the tools and resources they are using?
As of now we are exploring the possibilities of starting tutorials in SL.
