Creating a new virtual world to conduct leadership simulations is a thought that has been bouncing around for a while. It would be interesting to give different individuals different parts of a case study with attached scripts, and then get them to act out how they would solve the problems applying the leadership learning that they receive in the classroom.
Each individual would be assigned an avatar with a code name, that wouldn't be identifiable until after the simulation or experience is over. An instructor would be on-line giving student feedback on all their interactions and problem solving methods.
Or you could even have different avators coaching each other without knowing who exactly they are.
I found a new site that is like second life except way easier to create your own virtual world. Within minutes I had my own space, furniture, trees and yes even a pet squirrel. Check out where the world of learning is going...
If anybody has done this type of learning using a virtual space for leadership simulation I would be very interested in hearing from them.
