aVataR@School project
http://www.avataratschool.eu/mod/resource/view.php?id=83
The overall goal of the project is to use virtual role plays to find a new way for conflict resolutions with a playful and cooperative approach.
The aVataR@School project aims to establish virtual role plays in which pupils, teachers and others try out strategies for conflict resolution by means of the School Peer Mediation approach.
Each virtual role plays will take plave in the most popular 3D online digital world: SecondLife (http://www.secondlife.com). For each of the role plays a scenario will be worked out to represent a typical conflict in school (e.g. social exclusion, bullying or violence). In each scenario players will try to find common solutions in a cooperative and collaborative way.
