Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

MARCH 2, 2007

We need to encourage the development of easy to use, safe, classroom environments that can be controlled by the teacher but also allow students to enter 3D virtual environments. If we do not advocate for effective classroom measures in second life, we will have to take it as it is. Are you preparing them for that?

Learning Management Systems (LMS) must evolve as the dynamic learning environment of its users change. For example, learning no longer only takes place in classrooms, it happens online, in social settings, and on mobile devices: virtually everywhere. If the LMS does not change then the user’s education suffers.
