Online Access

 

Since role-play by its nature can only be seen when a class is actively enrolled in it, no URL can be provided. However, firstfleet.uow.edu.au is the link to the database that supports the role-play as a resource.

Note: Extensive guidelines about how to design and implement Online Role Play plus examples of various role-play designs are available in the "Guides" section of this web site.

Intellectual Property and Dissemination

 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The learning design is generic. The content in the website, character descriptions, and scenarios is copyright Sandra Wills. However in 2003 it will be freely available for reuse by other teachers via the Fablusi platform. There may be a small charge for the use of Fablusi which is a hosted web service.

DISSEMINATION

The learning design has been reused. It is now being redesigned to stand alone as a role-play for use by other teachers, especially secondary teachers, and for university teachers as a staff development resource.
