This is a research blog where I will document my exploration in the areas of Imaginary Worlds, Education and Youth. Some initial questions that will drive my research are:
- What are some different forms of imaginary worlds, digital and non digital, that people like to engage in?
- What are some existing efforts to integrate virtual worlds, simulations, and models into learning environments?
- What do youth like about these imaginary worlds?
- What kinds of core activities do virtual worlds support?
- How are kids traditionally introduced to these worlds and how do they learn to use them?
