- Highlight important points he makes about the demands of teaching in SL
  posted by yukonsyl on 2008-02-21
It's an alternative channel to reach students
some students [don't] learn that way
The really important part about it is, it's a social site. So my students get to meet other students ... and teachers from around the world. And the content attracts a consistent [caliber] of person, people of like mind. That's very powerful.
Video doesn't work that well, in my opinion
And with the viewer [software] I've used, you can't fast-forward
If I really wanted to, I could make sure everything is working, but it's just not worth that extra effort.
Also], it's not very good for very large classes. You start to have [access] problems and lag time problems

The Second Life Grid provides a unique and flexible platform for educators interested in distance learning, computer supported cooperative work, simulation, new media studies, and corporate training

Second Life Education Wiki
If you would like a place of permanence on the Second Life Grid, Private Island ownership lets you create a secure "intranet" space with restricted membership for your students and faculty, or you can open it up to be accessible to everyone on the Second Life Grid. We offer a discount for Private Islands to educational institutions and non-profit organizations. You can find details on the Private Island order page. You can also optionally buy a plot of land on the mainland of the Second Life Grid if you want something smaller and permanent (we don't offer any educational/non-profit discount for such plots).
