OSCC17 - Creating Case Study Educational Simulations for In- and Out-of-World Use
Channel: AvaCon Inc
Date: 2017-12-14

Join a lively presentation on the techniques used to create multi-use case study simulations in an OpenSimulator grid. Also, the early findings from a study -- of the impact of increased out-of-world exposure to virtual simulations on the participation rate for in-world learning activities -- will be discussed. Using course-related case studies, screen capture video clip dramatizations can be created in-world (and made available -- out-of-world -- in online course sites). Accordingly, every member of the selected online courses has an opportunity to view the case study simulations and learn about the available virtual world learning activities. Additionally, the smaller subset of students that volunteer for the in-world activities have expanded opportunities to either experience the pre-staged case study simulation in-world or to take part in dramatizations that will be displayed out-of-world.
