Just dropped in to your SL island and very interested to see what this
project provides.

I've been working on a different approach to simulation/problem based
learning as part of the JISC SIMPLE project (http://
simplecommunity.org & http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/elearninginnovation/simple.aspx)
and I can see loads of possibilities in terms of PIVOTE being really
complimentary to the more "office/correspondence" based simulation
tasks that SIMPLE enables.

We currently have a Personal Injury scenario that use videos to allow
for a "site visit" to the scene of an accident, and there are specific
things in that video that the students *should* pick up on. So I can
envisage a PIVOTE driven scene for the students to actually perform an
investigation of the site.

I think there are definate possibilities here!

Michael,

More than happy to chat about how the two projects can work together.
Drop me a line at david....@daden.co.uk.
