Call: Educational sims for Journal of Virtual Worlds and Education

Invitation to submit a “Guided Tour” of an educational sim.

Do you have a favorite educational sim? A treasure that stands out as an excellent example of how to use a virtual environment as a learning and teaching tool? We are looking for your reviews!

The Journal of Virtual Worlds and Education, a peer review journal, will publish its premier issue in Spring 2010. Along with the research articles we have already received, we will be featuring a less formal “Sim Review” section. These articles are not subject to peer review, and will be available on our website and/or in print.  Articles should explore the particular space (or build) in terms of educational value, benefit (or not) over traditional methods of presentation to students, or unique use of environment.

Guidelines:

Articles may be up to 1,000 words and should include photos and/or video to support the article.

Site location (slurl) is required

Papers are to be submitted by email as a Word (.doc) document or Rich Text Format (.rtf).

Photos may be submitted by email as .jpg or .png files.

Video may be posted to youtube, tagged jvwe, and a link provided.

Deadline: March 20, 2010

Submit to: jvwe@jvwe.org
