    Incorporating virtual worlds in language classrooms allows students to experience target cultures online in three main ways. First, it promotes socially active language use through interactive media in authentic contexts. Second, students can work independently or collaboratively on cultural products and share their work with a global audience. Third, teachers can create new techniques or improve traditional ones like movies and videos by integrating digital resources. This brings target cultures into the classroom while giving students more control over their learning.
