Educational Gaming Commons - Press Start

Dr. Kapp will be joining us from Bloomsburg University to talk about 3D Virtual Worlds and how they do or do not fit into the landscape of online courses. He will be focusing on the pedagogical aspects of these tools and not necessarily the tools themselves, as we are all familiar with and have explored many of these 3D Worlds.

Dr. Kapp's presentation will be from 10:30 to noon on October 21st at the Hub in Heritage Hall, and I have attached a copy of Dr. Kapp's bio.  Below is an abstract of his presentation.

If you are able to attend please RSVP so we have an idea of how many folks we may have in attendance. Also, if you know of other Instructional Designers that I may have forgot to include on this email please pass along the information. I tried to account for everyone, but I'm sure I missed some folks, especially some at the campuses.

We will try to arrange to have the session recorded and made available for those that cannot attend in person.

Regards.
Rick Shearer, Penn State World Campus
