  • There are now several implementations of multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) that have produced evidence of their educational validity. These implementations, however, do not make full use of the educational possibilities offered by MUVEs – namely the potential for students to learn through design and construct of artefacts within the virtual environment. This paper outlines a design-based research project that aims to implement and evaluate a MUVE that focuses on student design and construction of in-world artefacts. The discussion covers theoretical groundings, the challenges of construction and outlines a progression of activities that meet these challenges. An initial pilot study is described and reported.

  • Educators are, in large part, bullish on the role technology can play in improving student outcomes. But too large a percentage of them aren't receiving adequate training in the areas that matter most: instructional software, technology integration, learning outcomes management, and designing individual lesson plans. This according to a study released last week by the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers, which also described access to classroom technology as "woefully inadequate" in most schools.

    is a beautiful browser based flash puzzle game. The animation, illustration. sound and character development is amazing. A stand out in the genre of online games and puzzles. The basic level is also FREE, loads fast and invites exploration! It is so visually rich that it can easily be used to create a digital story or narrative well outside the computer screen. The art is engaging and contemporary in young children's animation right now

    This is a stunning example of what 'good design' can bring to the understanding of statistical information. Good use of colour, layout and typographic information helps create a more engaging (and potentially more easily understood) reality. There are numerous uses for this; not least in playful and enjpyable learning. "A visual real-time simulation that displays the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, birth rates, and death rates of every country in the world."

    An article about story boarding and how it relates to a modern presentation such as the TED style talks. Very good embedded video about Walt Disney and the development and use of story boarding in animation.
