This Friday at 1pm EST - Immersive Education content review, ranking, tagging, and vetting [in-world MEETING]

Hi all, the events page at http://ImmersiveEducation.org/events/ now has the
audio transcript from last week's in-world "Avatar Tracking" meeting linked into
it (see the archives area) and this Friday's meeting is now on the event page as
well as noted below. Dr. Nagel, our group co-chair, will host this Friday's
event while I present Immersive Education at the CALICO conference
(http://calico.org/) that same day. Regards, Aaron

WHAT: Immersive Education content review, ranking, tagging, and vetting
WHEN: FRIDAY MARCH 21, 2008 from 1-2pm EST
WHERE: Second Life (EduIsland: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Eduisland/158/60/22/)

.:: join the Immersive Education Second Life GROUP for in-world event  ::.
.:: invitations (see http://immersiveeducation.org/events/#join_group) ::.

Join us in EduIsland (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Eduisland/158/60/22/) to
discuss the process for reviewing, ranking, tagging and vetting Immersive
Education learning environments and the content they are comprised of. An
overview of the Education Grid will be presented with a focus on proposed
requirements for 1) Support for multiple asset types and content formats, 2)
Quality control and legal vetting, 3) Multi-tiered metadata architecture, and 4)
Content linking and associations. See Meeting Materials at
http://ImmersiveEducation.org/events/ for an overview of these draft
requirements and related meeting materials.

Special guest Dr. Jonathon Richter (University of Oregon) will demonstrate the
potential for using in-world content review tools, such as the Second Life
SaLamander HUD (heads up display), to review and rate Immersive Education
content. Richter will discuss how the HUD may be enhanced to support any
Immersive Education virtual world platform including Croquet and Wonderland.

This meeting starts at 1pm EST (10am pacific / Second Life time) and ends at
2pm, with additional time beyond that allocated to questions and further discussion.
