Best Practices in Virtual Worlds Teaching Guide 2.0 now available

Our Best Practices in Virtual Worlds Teaching Guide produced by University of Derby and Aston University in collaboration and funding from the Higher Education Academy Psychology Network and JISC is now available in soft and hard copy. The guide features tips and advice on setting up teaching in virtual worlds using problem-based learning methods. It’s designed primarily for those teaching Psychology, humanities and the social sciences but will be useful to anyone starting out teaching using virtual worlds.

This is the personal blog of Milton Broome, the digital avatar of University of Derby Lecturer in Psychology Simon Bignell. The avatar is a proxy for Psychology teaching and research in 3D multi-user virtual environments.

I teach a range of Psychology modules both to campus-based and distance learners. These include my final-year course 'Autism, Asperger's and ADHD' and a range of modules across Developmental and Cognitive Psychology.
