Students explore virtual lands, go on quests, play games, maintain a home, nurture a pet, and interact with their friends. Students learn through immersing themselves in the stories, themes, and concepts from the best in literature, arts, and humanities. They will interact with famous historical and fictional figures and be introduced to content and characters from world civilization and the great thoughts and ideas of human creativity including Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, Galileo and Socrates. Students actually create this site, not just consume it. They are directly involved in creating this world with their ideas, critiques, and contributions on almost every aspect of the site and many of their ideas will be implemented. Students publish their works such as writings, art, or videos. They can invite friends and family to view their works and comment.
