2011 - International Workshop on "Real Education in Virtual Worlds"

International Workshop on "Real Education in Virtual Worlds"

A brief description of the workshop topic

Virtual worlds have generated much attention and interest among educators and researchers over the last few years. To response the increasing calls for practical evidences of applying virtual worlds in educational settings, the first workshop on Real Education in Second Life was held in conjunction with The 18th International Conference on Computers in Education (ICCE2010). We had a fruitful harvest in the workshop. Researchers and educators from different countries got together to share and exchange experiences in Second Life. To expand the participance and influences, the second workshop on Real Education in Second Life is renamed as Real Education in Virtual Worlds. All the researchers and educators of virtual worlds, such as Second Life, online game, virtual reality, augmented reality, etc, are very welcome to join us. The two-hour workshop will provide a forum where international participants can share knowledge, experiences and concerns on related educational issues in Virtual Worlds and explore directions for future research collaborations.
