The Immersive Education Initiative is a non-profit international collaboration of universities, colleges, research institutes, consortia and companies that are working together to define and develop open standards, best practices, platforms, and communities of support for virtual reality and game-based learning and training systems. Thousands of faculty, researchers, staff, administrators and students are members of the Immersive Education Initiative, which is growing at the rate of approximately 100 new members every month... .:: MORE ::.Exploring the Metaverse: Virtual Worlds and Games for Learning
Virtual Worlds and Games are increasingly being used in education and training to create learning experiences which are immersive, authentic and media rich. It explores some of ways educators from around the world are using spaces like Second Life, ReactionGrid, Quest Atlantis and World of Warcraft with their students. More...I randomly found this link to this promotional video for "Freedomland USA, " a failed attempt to create a "Disneyland East" theme park in the Bronx, New York. Freedomland was essentially a 60s era attempt to create an immersive virtual world that combined family-friendly entertainment and education. The various rides and entertainments seem pretty tame and boring by today's standards. Most of the visitor experience appears to be queuing up for rides to sit on a slow-moving conveyance to look at simulations of various eras and historical sites in America's history. Basically, the Freedomland designers copied the most boring parts of Disneyland and left out most of the fun. Even the paid actors working there appear bored, particularly the firemen in the Chicago fire experience.
Betterverse: Nonprofits in the Virtual World
Introduction The MISSIVE project (Major Incident Scenario Simulation in Virtual Environments) seeks to determine the feasibility of utilising virtual world environments as training adjuncts for major incident simulation. The project has been funded by the UK Health Protection Agency. What is the need?
Virtual World Innovations | Collaboration and virtual worlds for Science, Technology, Healthcare and Business
The Medical Media and Design Laboratory at Imperial College London was formed to undertake development and research in Virtual Worlds. It is part of the Division of Surgery , which is world renowned for its pioneering work on surgical skills through simulation, virtual reality, telemedicine and robotic surgery. Projects: We develop interactive clinical environments for a wide range of advanced applications in Second Life and compatible platforms. We also manage events and support a growing community of healthcare innovators. We have been active in Second Life for over 6 years and have undertaken several ground-breaking projects including:

Those Little Questions: All About Skyboxes Here’s another in my series of questions and answers inspired by the search terms that bring people to this blog. I’ve been pasting all of the questions into a file so that once I have enough I can write up a post, and I noticed that a great many of the search queries concern skyboxes, so that’s what this post is all about. A skybox is something quite unique to Second Life and is, as the name suggests, a box in the sky. Or, rather, a dwelling in the sky.

Virtual worlds like Second Life are becoming important tools for, among other activities, socialization, social networking, entertainment, collaboration, and business development. These environments offer information systems researchers a unique opportunity to study how these environments are built and managed by operators, how they are used and misused by users, and the impact that they have on users, communities, organizations, and societies at large. This panel is designed to introduce the information systems community to this topic. We have assembled both academic and practitioners involved in building, managing, and using virtual worlds to discuss a roadmap for research on virtual worlds.
