The Future Of VET

It struck me on Friday at the ‘Elearning07′ NSW LearnScope and other Framework projects Showcase how many people were immersed in and engaged with the use of Secondlife, one of many virtual connection platforms ripe for educational use.

I’d like to acknowledge the tireless and and amazing work and persistence of Jo Kay and Sean Fitzgerald in this area and the tireless work of Stephan Ridgway in bringing it to the ‘inside’ of the TAFE NSW Sydney Institute.

The realm of virtual worlds as an engaging space for educators to conduct business through and within may not be at it’s zenith however the innovators mentioned above sure have progressed this conversation to date.
