This is funny. in response to a complaint that students "don't hang out" in the virtual environment after the virtual class (apparently finding it boring) Karl Kapp comments "In the physical world (real world), not many students hang out in my classroom when class is not in session! So why do we expect it to happen in a virtual world?" I think that if the standard of interest to be matched by virtual worlds is 'the physical classroom' we are aiming pretty low. If the best online worlds can do is to match how boring the traditional classroom is, it has no future.
