CEO and Managing
Director, Languagelab.com
David Kaskel is the CEO and Managing Director of Languagelab.com, a pioneering
Second Life-based language school.
He will be responsible for coordinating in-world
modelling and scripting and for the collaborative development of the educational/dramatic
scenarios. Kaskel has directed the building of a highly sophisticated virtual
city in Second Life, populated by qualified and experienced language tutors,
and containing inventive teaching and learning materials, interactive tutorials
and scenarios designed to fully exploit the possibilities offered by the Second
Life environment.
Kaskel is currently overseeing the development of Theatron,
an Eduserv funded project which involves the reconstruction of 20 historically
significant theatres in Second Life. In addition, he is developing a range of
interactive spaces to support the work of the Centre for Computing in the Humanities,
where he is also a part-time Ph.D. student, studying aspects of the user-avatar
relationship in shared virtual environments.
