Valerie, I took many f2f workshops and did a great deal of work on learning objects as part of a European Union initiative called "Celebrate" from 2003-2005. Here are some links on the project: http://www.europeanschoolnet.org/ww/en/pub/eun/projects/past/celebrate_presentation.htmand http://celebrate.eun.org/eun.org2/eun/en/index_celebrate.cfm. Here is some work that I had done in the past that I still keep online: http://www.nelliemuller.com/integratingtechnologyinESL.htm and http://en.eureka.ntic.org/display_lo.php?format=HTML&lom_id=8203 http://www.nelliemuller.com/burgerwriter.htm and http://en.eureka.ntic.org/display_lo.php?format=HTML&lom_id=8183

I think learning objects can be very socially interactive and engaging. However, good game like learning objects can be very expensive to develop.
