- Lingua
Unlimited: Enhancing Pedagogical Reality with MOOs, by Cynthia Haynes
and Jan Rune Holmevik. Kairos (A Journal for Teachers of Writing in Webbed
Environments) 1.2 (Summer 1996). This article uses Lingua MOO to explain
many of the pedagogical possibilities of MOOs.
- Synchroni/CITY: On-line
Collaboration, Research and Teaching in MOOSpace, a 1995 MLA paper by
Cynthia Haynes and Jan Rune Holmevik. Presented in the form of a MOO
conversation, this article describes how the authors' collaboration led to the
creation of Lingua MOO and the development of various types of pedgogical and
collaborative tools.
- Collaborative
Spaces and Education, by Daniel Anderson and Joi Lynne Chevalier. These
pages include both theoretical and practical discussions of the educational
uses of MOOs and Web pages. You must have a frames-capable browser to access
the pages and the necessity of continually jumping between frames can be
annoying, but the the detailed examples of how the authors used the technology
in specific courses are intriguing, particularly Chevalier's creation and use
of a MOO called Foreign Realms.
