This document discusses how massive multi-user virtual environments (MMUVEs) like Second Life can enhance traditional teaching practices through virtual role play. It notes that MMUVEs allow for more social interaction, communication, and immersive experiences than traditional computer-based learning. Specifically, the document proposes using Second Life to create a virtual food factory for role playing work scenarios to improve training for new professionals. The conclusion argues that MMUVEs have not fully utilized student interaction potential and that virtual role play could be a powerful constructivist tool for independent learning.

Mosaic Learning promotes an experiential learning model called Doubt-Based Learning. It emphasizes active learning where students question assumptions and think critically from multiple perspectives rather than memorizing facts. Traditional education focuses on a single perspective, but the modern world requires adapting to constant change. Doubt-Based Learning uses technologies like virtual and augmented reality to create hands-on learning experiences that mimic real-world challenges. This helps develop problem-solving skills needed in today's economy.

4 Fascinating Trends in Education Technology
In today's digital world there are two kinds of teachers; those who embrace technology and those who fear it. Here are four trends in education technology.
Muves final(1)
MUVEs (multi-user virtual environments) have been used for education purposes such as creating online communities for teacher training, engaging students in science activities, and helping students experience history. MUVEs embed educational tasks or problems within virtual contexts and allow users to access contexts, explore environments, represent themselves through avatars, and communicate with others. Studies show MUVEs like Harvard's River City, which places students in a 19th century town experiencing a disease outbreak, can improve students' inquiry skills and science understanding compared to traditional curriculums. Future trends include leveraging MUVEs' ability to create authentic learning conditions and using them to better capture student learning.

Authentic learning for_the_21st_century_an_overvie
Authentic learning involves engaging students in solving real-world problems in collaborative ways that mimic professional practices. Technology now enables various forms of authentic learning through simulation, remote instrumentation, digital archives, and online communities. It allows students to engage in sustained, collaborative problem-solving of complex, ill-defined problems from multiple perspectives, culminating in polished products. This helps students develop valuable skills for their future careers and motivates learning through relevance.
Journeys in Blended Learning: Key Landmarks for Your School's Progress
The document discusses key milestones for schools and classrooms in implementing blended learning, including determining whether the focus is on learning outcomes or traditional schooling structures, integrating blended learning with curriculum, and ensuring all students have equal access. It also examines different blended learning models and the importance of designing blended learning experiences that move beyond familiar pedagogical practices.
Solutions in Education - Knowledge Society and Mobile Learning
The document discusses the future of education and mobile learning. It notes that education needs to be transformed, not just reformed, to build achievement through discovering each student's talents. Mobile learning can enhance collaboration, contextualize learning, and tailor instruction to individual needs. Effective mobile learning considers the device, learner, social, and mobile learning aspects. Devices like iPads are being used in pilot projects at InnoOmnia for special needs students, work-based learning, and demonstrating real-life competencies. Mobile learning supports and complements traditional learning rather than replacing it.

MUVE
Multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) have been used for educational purposes in a variety of ways such as creating online communities, engaging in science activities, and helping students understand history. MUVEs are designed to support inquiry-based learning through accessing virtual contexts, exploring environments, communicating with other users, and representing themselves through avatars. An example is Harvard University's River City MUVE, which is set in a 19th century town plagued by disease where students collaborate to determine the cause through investigating and interviewing virtual citizens. Studies found River City improved students' science inquiry skills compared to traditional methods.

Giving STEM Education a Second Life
Stephanie E. August, Member, IEEE, Michele L. Hammers, Don Brian Murphy,
Allison Neyer, Penda Gueye, and Robert Q. Thames
Abstract—Engineering education in the 21st century faces multiple obstacles including limited accessibility of course resources due, in
part, to the costs associated with acquiring and maintaining equipment and staffing laboratories. Another continuing challenge is the
low level of participation of women and other groups historically underrepresented in STEM disciplines. As a partial remedy for these
issues, we established a Virtual Engineering Sciences Learning Lab (VESLL) that provides interactive objects and learning activities,
multimedia displays, and instant feedback procedures in a virtual environment to guide students through a series of key quantitative
skills and concepts. Developed in the online virtual world Second Life
TM
, VESLL is an interactive environment that supports STEM
education, with potential to help reach women and other underrepresented groups. VESLL exposes students to various quantitative
skills and concepts through visualization, collaborative games, and problem solving with realistic learning activities. Initial assessments
have demonstrated high student interest in VESLL’s potential as a supplementary instructional tool and show that student learning
experiences were improved by use of VESLL. Ultimately, the VESLL project contributes to the ongoing body of evidence suggesting
that online delivery of course content has remarkable potential when properly deployed by STEM educators.

1 INTRODUCTION
THE Virtual Engineering Sciences Learning Lab (VESLL)project is an online interactive learning environment
that introduces students to quantitative skills and concepts
through visualization and interactive problem solving [1].
Initial content focuses on positional numbering systems,
logic operations, gates, and flip-flops, and visualization of a
rate flow problem from differential equations. VESLL is
based in Second LifeTM. SL is a widely used free online vir-
tual environment populated with content (locations, objects,
and activities) imagined and created by its users (also
known as “residents”). In SL, a private “island” has been
created specifically for VESLL where users can explore con-
tent, solve puzzles and participate in activities, and interact
with other users. SL uses common geographic terms such
(such as “island” and “mainland”) to designate virtual
spaces within the environment; an island is a freestanding
space where an owner has exclusive rights to develop
(“build”) content.
For general users, Second LifeTM is a free online service;
therefore, while there are costs associated with maintain-
ing the VESLL island, there is no additional cost (beyond ...
Managing Schools Today Build Fit Future
The document discusses key considerations for designing schools for the future. It argues that if schools are defined as organizations that educate communities, then designing schools requires reinventing education and engaging all stakeholders. It also stresses that design must solve for multiple possible futures and accommodate different learning styles. Schools will need to provide diverse, flexible learning environments that support curiosity, independence and mastery of learning processes. The physical school design should embody these values through features that enable various learning activities and engage the whole community.
