Social networking tools’ most popular features are those in which students create the content (wall posts, messages) and consume the content that other students create (viewing photos, reading messages). How can course delivery tools begin to leverage that interest? Leveraging Social Networking & Immersive 3D Environments for Better Online Instruction Social Networking: Discussion

Our survey shows strongly that students most value interacting online with people they also see in person. How can we as educators make online instructional environments more an extension of in-person interactions?

Leveraging Social Networking & Immersive 3D Environments for Better Online Instruction 2% “Second Life” 14% Other immersive 3D environments Immersive 3D Environments: Usage

Leveraging Social Networking & Immersive 3D Environments for Better Online Instruction Games & Immersive Environments: Attitudes “The MMOG helps me keep in touch with people who I also see in person.” 32% agreed or strongly agreed “A person who has never met me will be able to tell what kind of person I am from my identity in the MMOG” 77% disagreed or Strongly disagreed

Leveraging Social Networking & Immersive 3D Environments for Better Online Instruction Games & Immersive Environments: Discussion Our survey shows that a minority of respondents are engaged in MMOGs and other immersive 3D environments yet those that are seem to value the social aspect of these experiences. Is it possible to use virtual environments to bridge the gap between the experiences of face-to-face classroom and online distance education?

Leveraging Social Networking & Immersive 3D Environments for Better Online Instruction Games & Immersive Environments: Discussion Our survey shows that the social value of MMOGs and other immersive 3D environments, while not the dominant reason for engagement, is significant. What is the value of the social engagement aspect of MMOGs? Does our concept of educational gaming need to be expanded to include the social and interactive aspects of MMOGs?
