Hi Sondra:
ReplyDeleteNice start. Your outline is very comprehensive in the breadth of issues covered. I really like the focus of your title/topic: "Efficacy of Learning in Virtual Worlds" --however, I don't see that focus as a strong focus in the outline. As an educator, I want you to show me the logical argument that second life (and other virtual worlds) can make learning me efficent at my setting. Item #9 in your outline is a value proposition, but I would suggest you think of putting this early in the presentation (like a thesis statement in a written paper) and then support that value proposition in the middle of the presentation and finally remind the viewer of the value/efficiency---as the conclusion.
Hope something here is useful. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Debbie,
ReplyDeleteYour feedback is greatly appreciated. I will go back and revamp utilizing some of your suggestions. Thanks so much!
