We are happy to announce the publication of a NEW ISSUE of the Journal of
Virtual Worlds Research (JVWR) - the second and concluding part of the
special issue on Pedagogy.
 Volume 12, Number 1 (2019): Pedagogy - Taking Stock and Looking Forward
(Part 2)

Issue Editors:
*Kenneth Y. T. Lim*, National Institute of Education, Singapore
*Cátia Ferreira*, Universidade Católica Portuguesa, Portugal

2019 marks the tenth anniversary of a landmark issue of the Journal of
Virtual Worlds Research, which was themed on ‘Pedagogy,’ an issue that was
the fruition of a vision of the late Dr. Leslie Jarmon, who was a pioneer
academic in the use of virtual worlds and immersive environments for
learning.

In this second and concluding part of the two-part special issue - four
more academic papers which together paint a colorful canvas on just how far
we have come, from those early tentative steps during which we explored the
nexus between immersive environments and learning a decade ago.

More from The JVWR
TheJVWR next issue of 2019 will be on the *IMPACT of immersive environments*
expecting to tackle issues like the following, and more:

   -     What is the usefulness of such research?
   -     Who are the main beneficiaries of the research?
   -     What real-world problems does the research on virtual worlds
   address?
   -     How can the effectiveness of the research be measured, if at all?
   -     Can we identify short, medium and longer term conceptions of
   impact?

In *Q3/2019* we will publish another Assembled issue. This is a place for
various papers, on the topic of the journal, collected during the preceding
year. You are invited to upload your research paper at any time to our
