Re: the virtual classroom, which we received a link in an email from Dr R—
Briefly, it is a program that allows a teacher or teacher-to-be to try out strategies on virtual kids. The advantage is that the teacher can’t hurt the real classroom climate or hurt a real student’s feelings and so forth. I love it. I wish the state had infinite funds so our districts could eventually get a hold of this program. I’d love to try it.
Here’s the site:

I'll pose the same question I posed for a fellow blogger on this topic - and though it may be a stretch, do you think that there might be an issue with the practice of disciplining "virtual" kids vs. disciplinging "real" kids? In other words, do you think beginning with virtual human beings changes perceptions of real humans?
