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.
