In the Virtual or imaginary world e-tivity the students to have to imagine and describe/depict what would some micro or macro environment look like in case of specific predefined parameters given by the instrutor that would govern the imagined system. For instance, what would the world look like with widespread implementation of nanotechnology, what the effects of climate change would be on a specific geographic location, what would drive the economy in a 0% CO2 emision civilization, what would the environment look like if all the land was cultivated for food production, etc. In this e-tivity the students produce a textual description of the imaginary world which can be supplemented with calculations, simulations, schemes, pictures, animations, video, etc. This e-tivity is suitable for various types of courses, for instance in social sciences (hystory, economics, political science, etc.), natural sciences (biology, chemistry, physics, geology, astronomy), engineering sciences, computer science, etc. The list of Web 2.0 tools that can be used for this e-tivity include collaborative writing tools (Google Docs, Zoho Notebook), wiki, blog, or online presentations / video tagging tools, as well as mind mapping and block diagram tools (MindMeister, Gliffy). |
