This is it? What is the big deal? Welcome to world of 3D Learning.

In the Beginning…

Good Morning Class Today we are going to Discuss engineering.

Who is Doing This?

Disney’s Toontown

By the end of 2011, 80 percent of active Internet users (and Fortune 500 enterprises) will have a “second life”, but not necessarily in Second Life, according to Gartner, Inc. Gartner’s advice to enterprise clients is that this is a trend that they should investigate and experiment with , but limit substantial financial investments until the environments stabilize and mature.

Designing The Group Experience
Considerations
What will group be doing?
Is a group necessary for this type of learning?
How does the group know where to assemble?
How will the group communicate?
What types of interactions do you want to encourage within the group?
What are the goals of the group?

Designing The Group Experience
Consider
Buildings…do you need a roof? Walls, can they be phantom?
Classrooms
Do they need to be indoors?
Place some seats in the air, to avoid obstruction
Land
Do you want to allow flying? Damage?
Realism
How realistic do you want the experience to be?

What are you tying to teach?
What is best taught in a 3D environment?
Why choose a 3D world over another tool?
What tasks might be effectively taught in a 3D world?

Requires Group Coordination
Requires Real-Time Interaction
Accomplishing Tasks Under Pressure
Group and Individual Performance
Rehearsal is Potentially Dangerous or Costly

People-to-People Interaction
People Make Bad Decisions
People Get Made
People Say/Do Stupid Things
Pressure Can Dull the Senses
Real-Time Interactions Add Pressure

Examples
Emergency Room Team
Team Selling
First Responders Activities
Running a Business
Group Decision Making

Encourage Problem-Solving

Create Shared Goals and Activities

Design
World
Where Does Event Take Place?
How Realistic?
What Needs to be Created?
What Objects will be Manipulated?

Create Common Spaces

Design
Instructional Event
What Happens First?
How Do Learners Interact (Voice/Text)?
Where Do You Want Event to Go?
What are the Desired Learning Outcomes?
Do You Add Pressure Elements (time, score)?
How Realistic Do You Want Actions?

Design
Activities
What Do Learners Do?
How Do They Receive Instructions?
How Do They Know What to Do?
How are the Learners Going to be Observed?
Do You Adversely Impact Health?
How Will You Score Success?
How Explicit are Your Instructions?

Create the Right Context (The Cardiovascular Center)

Design Debriefing
Who Conducts Debriefing?
What Will be the Focus?
How Does Instructor Observe?
Is it Provided in a Written Format?

Develop
Storyboard 3D World?
What Elements Go into World?
Instructions
How Do the Learners Know What to Do?
Are Instructions Text or Audio-Based?
Does World “talk” to Learners?

Tips for Effective Class Activities
Prior to Class
Make sure everyone can access the 3D world prior to the actual event...have a "dry run" exercise. Send plenty of advance notices about when and where to meet.
Set up a site outside of 3D world for correspondences and messages (like a wiki or an online community).
Make sure learners have an avatar prior to class.
Encourage learners to explore the 3D world prior to class so they are somewhat oriented to class.

In-World
Make sure everyone can do basic navigation. Start with an orientation exercise.
Make sure avatars are off of the Orientation Island .
Provide a SURL to transport students to place for instruction
Regardless of the instructional surround, create a gathering place for learners for pre or post briefings.
Establish some method to speak (or text) to the entire group.

Design of Environment

During the Class Activity
Make instructions are clear (vague instructions are hard to follow, provide them in written format if possible…in SL, use a note card.)
Provide a time limit for the instructional exercise.
As the instructor, go group to group to see how the learners are doing and to answer any questions specific to a particular group (if a group exercise).
Provide a mechanism for hand raising and for developing an orderly method of call on students.
Establish rules of behavior in terms of gestures, sounds, building.

Create Shared Working Spaces

After Class
Conduct a debriefing.
Make future assignments clear so everyone understands.
Assign in-world activities outside of class to keep learners involved with 3D world when class is not officially meeting.
Provide opportunities for after class, informal, peer-to-peer learning and exchange of information.
