About the past frustrations - go kick a garbage tin & then move on - don't crawl back down there. Cheers Carol Nice to see you’re back Sean & look forward to hearing about your new directions.

The potential application for Augmented Reality in the VET sector to enhance hands on training is very compelling indeed. The work being dome by BMW to assist car maintenance was amazing. The idea that you could sit around a f2f table and see the SL avatars sitting opposite you and converse is quite a freaky notion though. You just hope when you take the glasses off they are gone.

I will be circulating it further. Was it ever posted on the SLED list? Also a stunning demonstration of the collaborative output of two talented people with expertise in different areas.

]]> Comment on The winner of the Edublog Awards 2007 virtual worlds category and the awards ceremony by Konrad Glogowski http://seanfitzgerald.wordpress.com/2007/12/12/the-winner-of-the-edublog-awards-2007-virtual-worlds-category-and-the-awards-ceremony/#comment-1793 Konrad Glogowski Wed, 12 Dec 2007 04:20:08 +0000 http://seanfitzgerald.wordpress.com/2007/12/12/the-winner-of-the-edublog-awards-2007-virtual-worlds-category-and-the-awards-ceremony/#comment-1793 Sean, I agree that "Mixed-reality events like this are quite complex affairs, and many people are still getting the hang of these new technologies, especially Second Life." I enjoyed the Second Life EduBlogs Ceremony precisely because it was a very new medium and a very new experience. One of the things that I like about SL is that learning the ropes can be a humbling experience, which is something that every educator (especially those of us who think we know it all in the realm of technology-supported education) needs to experience. How can we help our students if we remain far removed from the the challenges of learning new skills? The complexity of a multiuser virtual environment such as SL forces all of its early adopters into the role of absolute beginners. Those of us in the edublogosphere who have come to think that teaching and learning are about pressing buttons that say "publish" or "edit this page" can learn a lot from the complexity and richness of SL. I know I'm learning ... and I enjoy the challenge. P.S. Thank you for using my photos, Sean. Glad you liked them. Sean,
