Tour of a College Campus: Ohio University


"Second Life and Lunch" Friday, February 8, 2008; noon to 1:00 p.m. in the KCELT 153 Computer Classroom.

This week Christopher Keesey, Project Manager, Ohio University Without Boundaries and Chief Technology Officer, PAKRA will give a tour of the Ohio University campus in Second Life. You're invited to watch this presentation on the big screen or log into one of the computers and join us in Second Life for the tour. Computers are limited--so please sign up for this session on the KCELT Web site.

Christoper has been building and managing the development of technologically mediated learning experiences for nearly a decade. He specializes in integrating highly engaging, animated simulations, virtual environments, and games into educational experiences that can either stand alone or support blended delivery formats. Christopher consults nationally on restructuring development teams to effectively manage larger-scoped simulation requirements for institutional and enterprise training. He also recently joined PAKRA, a company that develops web-hosted, games-based learning and assessment analytics software, as chief technology officer.

Bring your lunch, bring your sign-in information (including your password) and bring a friend. (If you are not on the Kirkwood main campus and have joined Second Life, you can still participate in the tour. Email Kit Umscheid for a teleport to the starting location in Second Life.) See you Friday!
