the one hundred and seventy-ninth episode of ventriloquy introduces two great toolsets for educators in Second Life, namely the Imagilearning Logic System and the Preso-Matic Game Kit.
both have been developed with a view to facilitating the design and construction of sophisticated game-environments within Second Life, by allowing educators to focus on the design of the game-environment, rather than get distracted by the complexities of scripting.
the Imagilearning Logic System is the collaborative work of Virtual Bacon (RL: Dr John Jamison; who is also the architect of my in-world house) and Loki Clifton (who is the scripting genius behind the original holodeck in Second Life).
the Preso-Matic Game Kit was designed by DoctorPartridge Allen (RL: Dr Al Partridge).
please do join me in this 1.4 MB download as i try to help you understand why i am so thrilled by these two education-pioneers in fictive worlds :-)
