Much of our development is being done in Second Life, even in efforts that are paper-based in output. We use graphic novel approaches for Web Based Learning (WBL) as well as classroom workshops. Mixed media with real-life photos and 3D graphic imagery promotes the right-brained activation desired for accelerated learning.
OSCA RSO - Occupational Safety Council of America Refinery Safety Overview
This effort is designing a unique approach to classroom learning for a Refinery Safety Overview for contractors. Second Life imagery is being used in conjunction with real photos to tell stories in graphic novel format, both as WBL and classroom delivery. The classroom delivery also uses machinema (3D video) and interactive games for information delivery / reinforcement and testing preparation.
University of Texas Medical School - Reynolds Grant for Geriatric and Palliative Care Learning
UT Medical School in Houston was awarded the Reynolds Grant for innovative development in teaching and assessing residents in the specialty areas of geriatric and palliative care. eLumenata, Inc. assisted UT in acquiring this grant by creating machinema that visualizes the development of clinical testing environments with scripted avatar bots with learning and testing HUDS. This project includes a sim being developed for both learning and testing of learners, and has expanded to include other UT medical groups that wish to participate and expose undergraduate pre-med students to this growing area of specialization.
Designing Dynamic Learning Events
eLumenata, Inc. has been the Global Provider of Instructional Systems Design (ISD) training for the MATPC Refineries in Shell for more than five years. A two sim learning environment for eLumenata's unique approach to ISD is currently being completed for opening in January 2010. SLURLs are provided should you wish to visit the sims. Be sure to login to Second Life, and then click on the link. A teleport invitation will be given in Second LIfe; simply accept it to teleport to the development sims.
ICS Connect Second Life Development
eLumenata, Inc. has been partnering with and supporting the efforts of ICS Connect in Second Life for several years now. Come visit the ICSConnect sim and immerse yourself in the world of growing and expanding your relationships. SLURLs are provided should you wish to visit the sims.
