    Jana Pejoska Design principles of educational virtual worlds for preschool children A Case Study of JumpStart World Kindergarten’s pedagogical methods Master’s thesis Digital Culture University of Jyväskylä Department of Art and Culture Studies Jyväskylä May 2010 1 JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta – Faculty Laitos – Department Faculty of Humanities Department of Art and Culture Studies Tekijä – Author Jana Pejoska Työn nimi – Title Design principles of educational virtual worlds for preschool children. A Case Study of JumpStart World Kindergarten’s pedagogical methods Oppiaine – Subject Työn laji – Level Digital Culture Master’s thesis Aika – Month and year Sivumäärä – Number of pages September 2010 86 p + 4 p Appendix Tiivistelmä – Abstract This thesis studies the design principles of educational virtual worlds for pre-school children. It examines the culture and contextualization of the virtual worlds for children used for the purpose of informal education through learning games in the case study of JumpStart World Kindergarten. The theoretical background provides an overview of the historical development of educational virtual worlds based on the progression of MUDs, MOOs and MMORPG. In addition, the issues in implementation and adaptation of information and communication technologies (ICT) as part of educational methodologies are examined, thus a perspective is given of possible problems and solutions for optimization of use of virtual worlds as an alternative way for acquiring knowledge with a constructionist approach. In the second part of the study, the design principles of virtual worlds are elaborated by framing the technical aspects, content, virtual world typology and user types thus mapping educational virtual worlds between other genres of virtual worlds.

  • Jumpstart Teacher Testimonials
    JUMPSTART “TEACHER OF THE YEAR” TESTIMONIALS General Quotes “JumpStart gave both my son and daughter the confidence they needed to further their success in school. It provided the sequential balance that web sites I use with my students are missing. Both of my children really did feel they had a ‘jumpstart’ when they entered the next grade.” Barb Stoflet, 2003 State Teacher of the Year (Minnesota) “I have to tell you that for a person who is usually disappointed with the quality and relevance of software for children, I was so very impressed, excited and eager to use JUMPSTART with ALL of my students and my own child! I have finally found software that is interesting, differentiating, aligned with benchmarks, integrates content and skill AND is so very user friendly! I JUST LOVE the programs! Your software DOES NOT talk down to children...rather, it recognizes their intelligences and abilities! MY HATS are off to JUMPSTART!” Lorynda Sampson, 2003 State Teacher of the Year (Colorado) “I use JumpStart daily in my classroom … the kids beg! JumpStart offers an innovative solution to skill review. My students cannot wait until it is their turn on the computer so that they can explore the programs. I highly recommend JumpStart to my parents. Thank you for making the commitment to give children a head start with JumpStart!” Karen Norton, National Board Certified Teacher and 2002 State Teacher of the Year (Arkansas) “Thank you for expanding the JumpStart series to such a degree that it fits into the challenging standards that schools are setting for themselves today.
