Fluent worlds is a new way of working that allows people to virtually communicate. You can switch your web cam on, so you can still see each other if you like. It's not seen as weird to have a skipe call or a zoom call or a teams call, but it's still virtual communication. The meta verse gives you another layer in the mix cause you can create your own character and choose how he looks. And i think for language learning, that's really empowering. For example, when we had to move a lot of our courses on nine at the london school last year, was how a lot of these shire students really blossomed in virtual environments.
754. Learning & Teaching English in The Metaverse / The Mandalorian (with Andy Johnson)
Andy Johnson returns to talk about more “M” words - this time it’s The Metaverse and The Mandalorian. The Metaverse is an immersive and interactive 3D online environment. How can it be used for learning and teaching English? Andy’s new job is with a company that offers English learning in the metaverse, so let’s chat about it. Also, we finally talk about The Mandalorian on LEP after waiting nearly a year! This is probably the last episode of LEP in 2021 - so Merry Christmas everyone and I hope you have a Happy New Year!
