Each lesson described below has one teacher and seven (7) students in the classroom. This description is for a seven (7) minute lesson. There are eight lessons to be conducted over a two hour period. Each role-play is linked to a student's role. See role descriptions. The structure of a two hour workshop is as follows:

• An introduction to the lesson - sample Introduction to VirtualPREX role-plays
• Reminder of how to use Second Life - basics - such as walking, talking, sitting, using objects. There is a "how to" page that can assist at Second Life Information page
  
• Each lesson takes 7 minutes to complete
• There is one (1) teacher per classroom and seven (7) students
• The first teacher (T1) plays their role as per the instructions, as do all the students. 
• In an average classroom lesson, 20% of the time 20% of the students students are off task (that is, not paying attention, not doing as they are told, or misbehaving)
• In one 7 minute lesson, if a role is to be off task, then that role should only be played 20% of the time - ie about 1 minute 25 seconds and only two students would be actively off task
• One student is passively off task
• The remainder four students are either actively or passively on task
  
• When the 7 minutes are up, everyone takes on the next role for that lesson as per the column of the student that you have (ie Student 1, Student 2, etc).
• See below the role-play tasks for for an organisation of time used for the two hour workshop
  

ROLE-PLAYS
SN = Scenario number
T= Teacher role
Roles are colour coded - teachers are yellow, roles are either on task or off task, with passive and active roles. Passive roles are where the roles go about undertaking as required with little activity.
yellow - teacher
purple - on task (active)
orange - on task (passive)
green - off task (active)
blue - off task (passive)

Two (2) hour workshop timetable
0-15 minutes	Introduction - show Introduction
15-30 minutes	Reminder of how to use Second Life and interactive VirtualPREX tools. Students should have a play and experiment with their skills in Second Life. This is a good time to resolve any issues.
30-37 minutes	Lesson 1
37-40 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
40-47 minutes	Lesson 2
47-50 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
50-57 minutes	Lesson 3
57-60 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
60-67 minutes	Lesson 4
67-70 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
70-77 minutes	Lesson 5
77-80 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
80-87 minutes	Lesson 6
87-90 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
90-97 minutes	Lesson 7
97-100 minutes	Changeover, discussion and reflection
100-107 minutes	Lesson 8
107-120 minutes	Discussion and reflection. This is a good time to remind students about the asynchronous use of role-plays with bots (in the classroom downstairs). Also, a reminder that these classrooms can be used at any time if they are not in use.
