 * Performance Technology **

This week, we will be visiting organizations that utilize performance technology in SL. Tours will be Thursday from 6 to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.

First, we'll meet at the Jaguarland Bay Boat Welcome Center ([]). Please be on time, or you'll get left behind. From there, we'll teleport to IBM's Island. We'll tour their information/welcome center then spread out through their large complex. You'll probably want to make sure to befriend Learner Magic (Dr. Dempsey), Aevalle Galicia (Stasia) and Bama Xue (Rebecca) so we can quickly help you out if you need help.

As you know, performance technology is a major part of the instructional design process. Training and performance interventons, can serve as a niche for consulting and career opportunities depending on your goals in this industry.

Take a look at the two You Tube videos to give yourself a background on this innovative way to better train in any environment.

As you look at the videos and participate in the tours this week, ask yourself the following questions?

1. What training possibilities are available using SL in my field of study?

2. How does SL help communication in performance technology?

3. How can the sites visited be improved?
