MUDs in Education: New Environments, New Pedagogies / Volume 2, Number 1 / January 1, 1995 / Page 8 MUDs in Education: New Environments, New Pedagogies by Tari Lin Fanderclai ([email protected]) Early in the spring of 1993, a small community of writing teachers who use computers in their classrooms discovered MediaMOO, a MUD operated at MIT and used by media researchers for real-time discussion and collaboration. The synchronous communication possible in a MUD, the immediacy of the exchange, the constant access to geographically distant colleagues, and the blending of work with play made MediaMOO uniquely appealing as a place for members of a professional community to come together. New collaborations arose; new projects were born; boundaries between established authorities and newcomers to the field seemed to blur; previously disenfranchised members of the academic community found audiences.
