Event Info
Description
Learn, Teach and Play in 3D Virtual Worlds
at City University London
We
are running a one-day seminar on the topic of “Learn, Teach and Play in
3D Virtual Worlds” and we are inviting you to join us in this exciting
event! We welcome teachers, students, educational technologists,
researchers, and anyone interested in 3D virtual worlds and games. We
welcome you to showcase your virtual world projects (e.g. education,
virtual museum, etc), to present your research findings, or simply to
voice your opinions about it.
The
seminar (whole day, 18 March 2009) will be face to face meeting at City
University London (time and room will be announced later).
Types of participation
We
are not just looking for presentations but participatory formats to
share and debate. Thus, we welcome ideas of other types of
participations. Please submit a proposal (around 300 words) to let us
know what you would like to discuss, how you think we could best
exchange ideas in this event and the anticipated outputs.
In
addition, a virtual meeting (in Second Life) will take place a day
before the face to face event and everyone is welcome. Further
information of the virtual event will be announced shortly.
