Virtual World's Best Practices in Education Conference 2017

 

 CVL Presentations

 

 At the VWBPE Conference 2017, the Community Virtual Library shared two presentations.


First, a library and education role-play with a literature-based Medieval Quest was shared by Dr. Valerie Hill and Brant Knutzen (University of Hong Kong).

The Second presentation highlighted the Community Virtual Librarys' expansion into other virtual worlds by conducting tours to other vitural worlds.  A "Metaverse Librarians" team led a presentation on branching out to other worlds with Valerie Hill, Marie Vans, and Alyse Dunavant-Jones.  So far, the group has explored libraries in Kitely, Avacon, Inworldz, and a web-based virtual world called Cybalounge. Join the googlegroup "Metaverselibraries" for more information.  Be sure to join the SL group inworld called "Second Life Library 2.0" for notices about virtual world librarianship.
