Virtual World Training Participation Requires physical presence Flexible participation Very flexible participation Flexible participation Module size 2-3 days each 2-3 days each and Webinars 90 minutes each 1 hour …. Half day 1 hour …. Half day Group size Apr 30 Apr 30 Flexible Flexible Roll out 1 group / location / Q 1 group / location / Q Good scalability Good scalability Costing Low sunk cost, High variable cost Moderate sunk cost, Moderate variable cost High sunk cost, Low variable cost Very high sunk cost, Low variable cost Success criteria Support of group learning. Support of group learning during the F2F module. Professionally produced Webinars Online learner support Good Virtual World Architecture Risks, opportunities, strengths Good potential for physical presence enabled peer learning. Lots of travel time and cost Moderate travel time and cost. Learning benefits from extended lead time. Requires commitment and motivation from the learners – Flexible scheduling. No travelling required. Little known territory - Good opportunities for gaming and simulation. No travelling required.
