SECOND LIFE MOOC APRIL 2016 Edmondo the Italian SIM

SECOND LIFE MOOC 2016 - CONNECTING IN VIRTUAL WORLDS- COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE

SLMOOC 16 April 17th Immersive Experiences in Edmondo the Italian Sim

Presenters from ITALY
Letizia Cinganotto and Andrea Benassi gave a presentation called "Immersive Experiences in Edmondo, the Italian Open Sim" on April 17th. Class members who had accounts in the Italian sim, Edmondo, joined the presenters on the sim, and the rest of the live class attendees watched .
I have no account but I wanted to see what Edmondo looked like and what teaching opportunities it could offer.
I watched the recorded session on the Youtube last week. It was a presentation about a system that is closed and offers the opportunity to work online where teachers and students enter the reality with their real names.
What students can do : play and learn why using  English. It is a game based approach. In Italy the platform is used for teacher training and teachers of any level are learning online thanks to Edmondo. An interesting learning environment which is  worth checking.

                                       SL  and  Italian  Educators : 
                                        a  great experience


My next step was to check more online and realized that the Italian school system is working on the virtual platform to promote language learning. 

I will continue  checking online..... and see what people have presented and shared as regards their projects.
