Del.icio.us links for 2007-02-16
Will be posting more of my 3rd assignment in the near future (well hopefully today), with some of the more interesting findings and statistics from the student surveys of use of weblogs. It can only be said to be a really mixed bag. But until then I have just come across a sort of Second Life for the educational world. Luckily it is not as bandwidth hungry and already has some web quests and environments set up there. When I get time I might take a closer look and see if this could be of use within lessons, or at least into an introduction to students of what might be coming.

Fabulous 3D Virtual world…a kind of second life for education. Have had a brief go and it seems quite fun, especially the Egyptian Area?

Here is where to down the desktop application, note this takes less bandwidth than SecondLife so might be more useful? Will tell you more when I have played with it more…
It was interesting as my last Year 9 lesson, I showed Karl Fisch’s ‘Did You Know?’ presentation and the students were amazed at some of the facts, especially the idea of e-paper. They are brining together articles and posts for their weblog in the near future, so head over to SevensVsNines to have a look. I wonder how they would react to a 3D virtual environment that they learn in?
