Quest Atlantis
This session will be an orientation to and induction using the Quest Atlantis (QA) 2D virtual environment in the curriculum learning. There is no cost involved with this program but a commitment to train and to use the program with inquiry learning pedagogies. Teachers wishing to take QA to the schools will need to attend 3 further training sessions, at dates to be negotiated, to qualify as a QA teacher.
Teachers wishing to join this session will need to register and provide valid contact details for themselves and their school:

Registration Code: 647678
We will use 2 programs in the session:

Download and install from http://atlantis.crlt.indiana.edu/#61
You will login with the username and password you proposed in your Quest Atlantis registration. We will start the meeting in Quest Atlantis and
then join our audio call in skype.
*2. Skype* (for audio and voice in the training program).
Go to http://www.Skype.com and download the program. You will find a headset offers the best experience for talking and listening over skype.
Add me to you contacts before the session - I am Bronst and I can meet you briefly online to test your connection if you would like. If you have never used Skype don't worry it is truly intuitive and fun and this first session is to orient you to QA and skype. For our meeting you will need to place this number in your calls tab entry +9900827048960310 (the "+" is very important ot leave in) It is a no cost call for you.
In the mean time you can acquaint yourself with the resources on my online training support website http://www.bronwyn.ws/QA/ . We really
do prefer that you encourage a partner teacher to join you in the training - 2 people from each learning environment creates a good local support.
I look forward to meeting you online.
