Not the River City of the Music Man, but an educational tool. I wish I had known about this one at the beginning of the school year. I know some science teachers that would love it.
River City Research Project is a MUVE (Multi-User Virtual Environment that teaches science and inquiry skills. I think my kids would like it but they would need to be part of a larger group. I can see it working very well as an after-school enrichment program or with a group of homeschoolers.
The program has been used across the country, including North Carolina. I wonder if any CMS teachers participated? I would love to talk to someone who has actually used this.
