DESCRIPTION
This EDUCAUSE_SAC07 presentation focuses on how we are moving from course management systems, such as Blackboard, to communication methods, classes and projects in the virtual world of Second Life. The slides present examples of projects, classrooms, educational activities and blended reality sessions in Second Life, and the presentation ends with a look at the space travel from the eyes of a planet. Contact Lyr Lobo in Second Life for more information or calongne@pcisys.net
