Jokaydia

     The shuttle has launched and the first landing sight is the virtual land of Jokaydia. This land has been a great to start my virtual adventure. Having never entered the virtual world before I was a bit nervous setting up and beginning my journey. After wandering around aimlessly a few times, I met with Esme for orientation. Orientation was very helpful. I was taught how to have different views of my new surroundings, how to transport, submit assignments and most importantly give myself a much need Jokaydian makeover. 
     After my orientation meeting getting around and exploring Jokaydia became much easier. I really enjoyed wandering around Malboro College's island. One of the most amazing experiences I had during my journey on Jokaydia thus far has been the meet-up with my fellow classmates and our guide Esme. During this meet-up I got to see how a large group chat works add friends and even learn to fly. 
     Although I am still a little afraid for the remainder of the journey I am also excited to see what the virtual world holds. If the rest of the journey is anything like the experiences I have had in Jokaydia so far, I will definitely continue to explore virtual worlds as an educational resource in the future, beyond this course.
