  • This group looks way too relaxed.
  • To relax in school, you have to know your stuff.
  • SUNY Empire State College (ESC)
  • MALET Program:  Master of Arts in Learning and Emerging Technologies.
  • Residency is a term taken from medical education.
  • All the MALET courses are online, so much coursework is done alone.
  • The residency program lets students connect with peers in MALET
  • And perhaps develop collaborative activities

"Slide" presentation
  • No slides are really needed, but we can make something a slide presentation.
  • Sometimes we put a transparent prim in front of the screen.
  • That lets the audience click to focus on the screen
  • Without affecting the presenter prim.

  • In a virtual world, we can easily zoom in on the screen
The group gathers at a bridge
  • This walking tour was about the architecture and landscaping of the place.
Note the building across the bridge
  • Recognize the style?  
This works as an auditorium


The walking tour crosses another bridge
  • They shall run and not be weary.
We explore a house


We hear how this place was built

  • This could be a model of some important real-world place. 
  • Then the talk could be about the real place.
