Innovate is soliciting manuscripts for a special issue on academics in
virtual environments. This issue focuses on the use of Multi-User
Virtual Environments (MUVEs) as an enhancement to education. A MUVE
combines graphics and audio with the ability to communicate with
multiple users in real time within the context of a 3-D virtual
environment. MUVEs are not necessarily considered games, as programs
like Second Life and There have no end goal or objective.
INNOVATE, edited by James Morrison, UNC-Chapel Hill Professor Emeritus,
is a peer-reviewed e-journal that began publication with the
October/November 2004 issue. The journal covers cutting-edge research
and practice in the field of using information technology tools to
enhance teaching and learning. Readers can also comment on articles,
share material with colleagues and friends, and participate in open
forums.
