Photostories and Photo Scenarios

Built in camera tools allow users to shoot virtual photographs in Second Life, which can be save and used in a range of ways including photo stories and photoscenarios. This strategy can be used to engage students in digital storytelling, and recording and reflecting their work in Second Life. It can also be used to create engaging multimedia resources which can be used in teaching and learning.

 

Photo Scenario - Jack's Hair Creations in Second Life

Created by Jo Kay for the TAFE NSW Hairdressing program in 2007, Second Life has been used to establish a virtual hairdressing salon - Jack's Hair Creations (SLurl), which is being used to create detailed photo scenarios which wil be used as part of a media-rich learning resource.

Using Second Life's building tools, a detailed hairdressing salon has been created as the setting for a collection of virtual photographs which illustrate interactions in a workplace between co-workers and with clients. These images will be used in a learning resource which incorporates video, text and images and is designed specifically to engage young people.
