Editorial Notes
Developed by Daden for a JISC funded project to train and assess St George’s University Hospital paramedics. PIVOTE allows you to create the structure and information content of a training exercise on the web – independent of a virtual world. You can then link 3D assets in your chosen virtual world to the exercise, and potentially play the same exercise in multiple virtual worlds, on the web, and even on mobile phones.
PIVOTE lets you:
- Create learning exercises on the web using a simple forms based interface.
- Create objects in a virtual world such as Second Life which users can use to interact with the exercise.
- Play the exercise in Second Life, Open Sim, or on the web or even an iPhone.
- Port exercises between virtual worlds.
- Share PIVOTE compatible objects between exercises and institutions.
- Rapidly edit exercises to create variations, or custom versions for different skill levels.
- Export student performance data for us in VLEs.
