In 1994 I started a project called Aggiornamento, literally meaning "bringing up to date," It also embodies a spirit of change,openness,open-mindedness and modernity.The purpose of the project was to describe the opportunities of the World Wide Web for education. This blog informed you on my experiences as an observant participator in Second Life. Since I ve finished my report on SL I have decided to continue on writing about educational initiatives that inspire me.

Kaospilots
Does this look like a school to you? It probably does not. And they do not intend to either! It is Kaospilot, a thrilling and succesful initiative in Aarhus sometime ago already. There is a location in my country too. It is all about learning and new ways to do so. The first core principle is playfulness! Read more about other principles on their pages, but start here. Lots of people talk about 21st century learning. They make serious business of it. I would love to see them start using 3d virtual worlds to work in, as you can imagine.

Hi Joop! I'm a 3rd year student in Aarhus and indeed, this place is a value-based Education, big time. Lots of improve of course but still quite remarkable. You should meet Peter and Martin down in Rotterdam. Awesome people there as well. And perhaps you could help the Kaospilots to join the virtual world... (honestly, the school is not very high-tech-oriented ;-))
Greetings
Henrique
