I have a timed PPP that I wanted to record in this manner.

Another method of making videos less passive is to break it up with activities e.g. a URL to be visited or piece of text to be read that then informs the rest of the video. Links to poll understanding/agreement, quizzes etc. Since the user can pause the video this is fairly…[Read more]

Have you ever taken either  learning approach in your studies?

Interesting to see a cycle of engagement with deeper and surface learning as learners progress through their course. I wonder if others in other disciplines or subjects have encountered a similar pattern?

Thanks for your contribution, I tend to flip between the two. On this course I am in the deep learning mode. I like your approach to demonstrating your understanding of this issue, using narrative is a fresh approach.

It would be interesting to note how some of the other immersive environments as well as OpenSim meet some or all of the design decisions points that you have listed.

Would I be wrong in suggesting that others may have come across this in the guise of self-assessment using reflection log where the individual charts where they started and progress made?

So how would you judge which technologies (if any) are best fit for which quadrant with the emphasis on ‘enhancement’?

Good take away point. Have you been able to identify an activity or event that would benefit from being swapped from its existing location on the model?
