SecondLife and Course ReDesign Listservs
The Ohio Learning Network (OLN) has announced the following two new online communities (listservs):
Second Life:
OLN invites you to join this interactive environment for open conversation. Members of the Second Life Listserv can share ideas about using SL in education, get support, share SL objects, and gain insights regarding effective SL practices. They will also have the opportunity to participate in guided SL tours. Two Ohio experts on SL will moderate this listserv: Fleep Tuque (Chris Collins, University of Cincinnati) and Hambone Senior (Paul Shovlin, Ohio University) will spark conversation, seek answers, provide support, and discuss the latest news and updates about Second Life. This list will be a great resource to all interested in Second Life!
Course ReDesign:
This listserv is intended to support the needs of instructors, support staff and administrators in redesigning courses by integrating technology to improve student learning outcomes and reduce instructional costs. Primarily centered on the NCAT models (The National Center for Academic Transformation) the listserv is intended for those in higher education seeking to transform traditional courses. David Wright, University of Dayton, will be moderating this list. The postings are intended to support redesign efforts applicable to any discipline or type of institution. Although redesign efforts are often targeted to high-enrollment or multi-section courses, the listserv can be a great resource for all types of course redesign initiatives.
