Congratulations to all of the students and teachers that successfully completed the 3D World program. I made a short video of the excitement and fun from our year-end Block Party. You can watch it on Vimeo on the link below. The password is the same one you use to access pages on this blog.
If you were wondering what the most popular job site in CityWide was, wonder no more. I copied the data from the 3D World Work Report (http://eloisepasteur.net/nydoe/) and pasted it into Excel. Then I removed the duplicates (hello Immanuel Highwater) and deleted work done by teachers. I counted the results by location and the results are as follows:
Congratulations Lynnda’s Grocery store. You are this year’s Most Popular Job Site!
Welcome to Citywide 3-D World, a cutting-edge program using 3-D Virtual World technology to prepare District 75 students to be successful in the world around them. Learning and practicing in a virtual world allows students a kind of “dress rehearsal” for many of the situations they may encounter in their lives. It also gives these students, many of whom have been using electronics since birth, a nonthreatening environment to practice verbal and social skills while interacting with program staff and students from other schools.
We welcome many new students this year as well as a few returning from last, as well as the teachers who make this program possible.
