Design of a Learning Activity in Second Life: Active Teaching of Social Educators
Abstract
Second Life™ (SL) is now an accepted platform for educational activities. SL supports a range of activities from informal meetings to complete courses offered in the 3D world as part of a university’s curriculum. Learning activities within SL can be identified as a form of e-learning that facilitates learning through the mediating artifacts of the technology. This chapter explores the use of SL using learning activities that are designed to activate students and to facilitate the creation of social activities within groups. The chapter uses the theoretical lens of Activity Theory to examine the operational mechanisms behind designing a course activity that engages people with lifelong disability in the active teaching of health professionals about disability.
