SAVE-ET seeks to share ways in which virtual environments are being used in educational environments in order to improve their usage and to increase teaching effectiveness. One way you can participate is by sharing your lessons learned with others. Consider writing about your experiences teaching in a virtual environment for publication on the SAVE-ET website.
