An active group of senior citizens participate in Pueblo. These senior adults interact with the children both in real life at school and virtually from homes, businesses or care facilities. When everyone is on the same level learning this stuff, it makes the students feel much more comfortable and secure about their knowledge. Walters said the students are very quick learners when it comes to technology, so they often end up teaching the se- niors a lot. In return, seniors have a lot more life experience, and can give kids more details and knowledge about the topics they are studying and working on in their virtual environments.
Seniors also help students improve their writing skills.
That's because the virtual world gives students new ways to communicate. Instead of verbal communication, students use written communication, giving some of the extremely shy students a new avenue. But in the Pueblo environment, they became very verbose. In the virtual world, nobody is looking at them, they are interacting through the computer. In the virtual world created in Pueblo, students can talk to those virtual students around them, or page someone who's in the virtual world but not close enough to hear them.
