This is a virtual world where students can interact using avatars. Students could create dancing avatars that mimic moves used in class. This would be a very engaging activity for students to participate in. The best part is that students would have to have a good grasp on a dance in order to recreate the moves with an avatar.

This is the environment where learners will record a demonstration of best instruction practices. This interactive environment allows users to interact in a virtual space. Presentations, lectures, Q and A, interactive polling, and other features take the classroom online. This is the current tool used at my institution. It's relatively inexpensive and integrates perfectly with our LMS, Blackboard. Blackboard purchased Wimba and their largest competitor, Elluminate, so they are working on Gemini as a new product to replace these products.
