Is an adult version coming?
The following came in via email:

Greetings. I was delighted to see someone had put to test something I have been thinking about for some time now. I design elearning mostly for medical education and instructor training. I have been looking for a social simulation authoring environment for teaching and coaching trainers primarily working in the public safety community, emergency medical services, fire services, etc. This was exactly what I envisioned as a social simulation around classroom management. Are there any plans to develop an adult based simulation model?

Great to hear from you. Could I post this into our blog?
The psychological model underlying the kids is an adult learning model and the framework for representing knowledge and personality is highly flexible…so the main challenge is just drawing adult bodies for the chairs and providing any new “classroom or boardroom” context. Ideally, we shuld probably move it into a 3D game-like interface someday to make thedse kinds of changes easier and more dynamic…but we have to locate funding to do that big of a shift.
