8-Bit Biologist / Enrique Cachafeiro
A working learning area in OpenSim. BioTown is an active Biology curriculum build. It is a virtual learning management system, with the content for the class spread out spatially, and information housed in in-world items that the students interact with at their own pace. It features informal assessment areas, a formal assessment area and a project display area. The entire Biology curriculum fits within a single learning region.
